There's a similar tool at http://color-theme-select.heroku.com it's also in beta, allowing to generate custom themes and select from a large collection of them. I've contacted the author to see if he's fixing the "generate emacs-lisp" feature.

Would be nice people could use that tool to create themes for emacs 24, and send them to emacs-devel.

Use -nw and get your terminal's theme for free!

What about a 256-color theme for 256-color terminals (or 88-color for 88-color terminals for that matter).

I don't see any colors other than black and white in the theme on Chrome 10 on Snow Leopard, but I do see bold, underline, italics. I see the colors on Firefox 4 beta on Snow Leopard.

I recommend using senny's theme-roller.el [1] to automatically apply your color theme to any new faces. Brings some sanity to the number of colors that need to be defined.

I would rather have an Emacs that offers fewer choices but looks good out of the box.

Example: the software supplied by Apple with a Mac does not have any themes except for the choice between Blue (colorful) and Graphite (subdued) in the Appearance system preference pane.

OTOH, I regularly have to wait for the software supplied by Apple and I almost never wait for Emacs.

Is there any cc-mode generator like this? I spent a couple days trying to tweak mine a while back, but try as I might, my comments still want to align all the way left.

Sweyla's also generates Vim and TextMate themes.
