#12I found the theme rather comfortable for using in the terminal; however I set TERM=xterm-256color so that vim would also pick up the light colour scheme—there seemed to be some issues with the background colour on gnome-terminal/Ubuntu.
Thanks!

#13Please share your favorite color scheme(s) ! My favorite for gvim/MacVim is molokai: http://winterdom.com/2008/08/molokaiforvim , seconded by vividchalk when i'm on the terminal: https://github.com/tpope/vim-vividchalk Haven't found any good color scheme for iterm2 yet. Currently i'm using thayer: http://ecto-plazm.deviantart.com/gallery/
I am currently using darkspectrum[1] for diff output and candycode[2] for everything else. There is a huge gallery of them, viewable with several code samples, on the Vim Color Scheme Test page[3].

Thanks for the kind words about molokai; took a bit to get it ported, but I've enjoyed it a lot since then. 99% of the props should go to the original authors of monokai and Hamish, though :)
Molokai ain't perfect, but I have yet to find one I like more for daily use.

#15Its really rare to see that much thought going into the aesthetics of stereotypically "geeky" applications like vim and terminals, even the website looks entirely different from pretty much every website I have seen around these tools
its a refreshing change, awesome work

#16Earlier quoted context omitted.
My favorite theme is the "Oblivion" one for gedit, but I don't use gedit, so I remade it for TextMate and Xcode 3/4. http://natestedman.com/post/morrowind-for-textmate-xcode/ I am sitting on a mostly-done vim version right now as well, the GUI colors are all good, but I wiped out the terminal colors (I want them to just be the defaults). I'm not exactly a vim expert and I almost always use the terminal vim exclusivel…
That looks cool, please consider putting your code on github so that others can follow its development.
Here you go:

Will upload the vim one later after I finish it up.

#17It would be nice to have a script that would start with this as a base, but let you tune the contrast. I like the theme, but would like more contrast than this (I use small fonts, and I really feel like more contrast is necessary when doing so).

#18I don't like this scheme and I don't buy the pseudo-science blurb. It's based on shades of blue. Our eyes are the least sensitive to blue. And what's up with the red and pink, is this some cruel joke? I'll stick with Zenburn[1]. [1] http://slinky.imukuppi.org/zenburn/

What's the pseudo-science blurb?
The monotones have symmetric CIELAB lightness differences, so switching from dark to light mode retains the same perceived contrast in brightness between each value. Each mode is equally readable. The accent colors are based off specific colorwheel relations and subsequently translated to CIELAB to ensure perceptual uniformity in terms of lightness. The hues themselves, as with the monotone ab values, have been adjusted within a small range to achieve the most pleasing combination of colors.
Blurby enough? ;-)

What part of CIELAB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lab_color_space) is pseudo-science? I don't see a section on the Wikipedia page about criticisms or controversies.
