color-scheme

I get a lot of attention at work because I am the only one who bothered to change the default color settings in Visual Studio. I just modified them myself. I can provide the settings file if anyone cares to import it.

Here's an example of how it looks.

Visual Studio 2005

It reminds me of DOS/BASIC programming before I actually knew how to program. I also find it to be very readable.

What color schemes do you use?!

EDIT: To clarify, I only edited the text settings. The windows and panels of VS2005 are still the windows default.
