I've grown bored of my eye-soring syntax highlight "style" and I need some ideas.
Content: (pretty much the default except with a black background)

Post your styles or some other styles

That on Visual Studio or Obsidian on any other editor.

This and this only.

That's so much better. It even makes my code run faster

Yeah, this. I try others occasionally, but Obsidian is just too nice.

To get some ideas rolling, I recommend using one of those [url=http://colorschemedesigner.com/]color scheme generators[/url], or even going to a [url=http://www.colourlovers.com/]website with predefined color schemes[/url] to find something you might like and alter for your needs. :smile:
zenburn isn't bad.
There's a port of zenburn to just about every editor ever made, plus some window managers, terminal emulators, and UI toolkits. If you run Linux and you're motivated to color-coordinate your entire desktop, you could make it all zenburn if you wanted.
There's [url=http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized]solarized[/url], too, but I honestly think the site is a lot nicer than the theme itself.
Also, Monokai/Molokai.
Obsidian on Notepad++ is just too nice to change from
(This is all in Sublime Text) I used to use some hacked-up theme, but I don't think I copied it over when I reformatted a few times in a row. So I ended up just using the default Monokai Bright them, until I recently switched to using SpaceCadet. SpaceCadet has a darker background which is mainly what I was going for when I changed styles. It also looks really nice with f.lux changing the colour temperature of my monitor as the time changes.

If you turned on some blending on your fonts I'm sure it'd be much nicer on the eyes. I found font blending was completely atrocious for coding on Windows XP but it's great on 7\Linux.

Sublime Text 2 + Soda Dark Theme + Twilight Highlighting
This is the vimscript I use:

Nice font.
[QUOTE=ief014;33105656]Nice font.[/QUOTE]
Looks far too much like Comic Sans for my liking.

Vim syntax coloring scripts don't set a font.

I like how you took me seriously
[QUOTE=ief014;33107004]I like how you took me seriously[/QUOTE]
I've seen people seriously use Comic Sans as a programming font.
I usually use either Son of Obsidian or Monokai. The latter is the default in Sublime Text and there are [url=http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2340]vim[/url] and [url=https://github.com/mmonteleone/monokai-vs]VS[/url] (haven't tried) ports of it.

Yeah the site makes it look great but at least in my experience it comes out an ugly mess of yellow, pink and difficult to read grey. Such a shame.
I don't choose colours for syntax highlighting, but I just use whatever I have set for my terminal colours.

For Visual Studio, I prefer Aspiration:

For everything else, Obsidian.
Everbody has their text so LARGE. It really bugs me.

Thats why people have it large, it helps people debug.
[QUOTE=Yogurt;33110256]Everbody has their text so LARGE. It really bugs me.[/QUOTE]
I guess my font is kinda large. I like it large though, that way with the font blending the characters are still really obvious and I can recline back in my chair while coding and still be able to read it easily.

are you sure that casting a memory address returned by new char[size] is a better rand function? :v:
(i'm referring to the a = int(memblock) part)

/dev/urandom is something in linux that constantly generates random strings based on what the machine is doing, so the outcome is a lot more random than just using time(NULL) as the seed.
looking at the other themes here, mine looks kinda brown lol
would probably look better if i lowered the background's brightness and saturation and lower the white's saturation
I use son of obsidian and a larger font- 14 point i think.
The larger font is nice for less eyestrain when you program all week, then some more on nights and weekends.
Son of obsidian irks me sometimes though, when I'm using a code snippet VS highlights the parameters in the method/conditional header, but the son of obsidian scheme for highlighting makes it impossible to see the variables I'm trying to type in.

Font is ProFontWindows.
I just switched though because I realized I had ProggyClean installed :dance:
