Christine,

    I'm not sure how to diagram it RK style, but I can tell you how I
would understand the roles.  To me, it's complex transitive, with
"look foolish" as what is traditionally called an object complement. 
(He acts upon me in such a way as to bring about this change.) 
Traditionally, I think "look foolish" is an infinitive phrase. (I
would call it a clause.)  Within its internal structure, "look" is a
linking (copular) verb and "foolish" is its adjective phrase
complement. (subject complement?  Here, the understood subject of this
clause is "me". I'm trying to use a terminology you might be
comfortable with.)
    Here's another take.  "I look foolish".  Straight forward
linking/copular sentence. Why do I look foolish?  "He made me look
foolish."   >
   If I remember right, the infinitive headed structure goes up from the
line on a little pedestal. Otherwise, you could treat like any other
object complement (As in "he made me a fool.")
   I hope that helps.
