#42I don't know about the rest of you, but my eyes literally started to hurt when I read the text on that page, presumably because of the color of the text v. background. Doesn't bode well for using it in vim...
Maybe it looks better on a different monitor? (I have a Samsung LCD.)

I love the Railscasts theme ( http://railscasts.com/episodes/258-token-fields for example), which is what I usually use with Emacs. For iTerm2 I copied over the colors from Visor.app's theme.. but Solarized looks really nice, so maybe I'll soon be using that instead.

I found the color scheme easy to read.
Using a Dell monitor attached to a mac via DVI though, and calibrated to the best of my ability using the OSX calibration tool.

#46Wow. Beautiful colors. Beautiful site. Very impressed by how much effort the author has put into this.

Used 'elflord' for the longest time, but have lately switched to Koehler.

#48Earlier quoted context omitted.
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 a b values, have been adju…
I hope that doesn't turn too many other folks off from the page and colorscheme. It may sound like a pseudoscience blurb, particularly if you aren't a color geek, but I sure didn't intend it to. It's all technically relevant and (I thought ;) tightly descriptive. L a b was actually a big part of the initial inspiration for the colorscheme. I work a lot in lab space (L a b is more correct, but cumbersome to type) and…
Sounds like it could make an interesting blog post.

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.
Point taken, I should have been less hand-wavy.
CIELAB might not be pseudo-science, but the claim that the application of CIELAB makes this a good scheme is, at best, dubious.
The bright red and pink don't blend with the other colors at all. Their jarring contrast (and red hue) could be adequate for an alert message, but not for innocent and frequent syntax elements.
Maybe there is a math model that captures all relevant aspects that make a good syntax highlighting color scheme. But this model clearly doesn't.

Bizarrely: I, too, had to strain to read the page; which I attributed, however, to the weight of the font: so thin that it won't render without artifacts.
