Highlighting for tabline for Tabbed Windows feature

The following scenarios are what I get here for a tabline for Tabbed Windows.
There seems to be inconsistencies for tabline color scheme or theme for my
scenarios, and am wondering how best to fix, or in the case of URXVT default
and my settings, what is hindering tabline highlighting? (See below
scenarios.)

1) Virtual Terminal
On virtual terminal, active tab is white font on a black background, while
inactive tabs are cyan/lt blue on a black background. (I like this, however I
think it would be also preferable to use a bold font, in addition to the blue
font color, so that the active tab is more noticeable.)


2) URXVT using Black Background and White Foreground (Customized)
Within URXVT, fonts are white on black background with underlining for inactive
tabs and no underlining for the active/focused tab.

This tabline color theme is barely functional. Is there a way to do something
similar to the above font coloring for tabline, in addition, using a bold font?
(I just noticed the default URXVT theme for some reason is better highlighted as
noted below... wondering what causing me to loose this on an inverted color
scheme.)


3) URXVT using Default Theme
Active tab is black font on white background with inactive tabs highlighted
grey with a white font. I can distinctly tell which window tab I'm working in
with this color scheme. Although I'd probably still want to use a bold font
for the active tab font! (I still really dislike using a white background
though! ;-)
