PHP   vs    .Net

My personal collection of Visual Studio Themes that I like.   Most of these are modified or inspired from ideas that have been popularly linked to on the web, such as Scott Hanselman's theme gallery.

Pond Scum

This theme I created basically from scratch when I was suddenly inspired by this StackOverflow post.  I enjoyed the look of the screenshot so I in turn screenshotted his pic and used this theme generator for a starting point.

I like the look of this so much that I even changed my programming font to Calibri, the one pictured in the screencap.  This is a big step, since it's the first time in my 14+ years of programming that I'll be using a proportional font (my previous font was Consolas).  We'll see how it turns out…

TextMate Tweaked

This theme is a tweak of a tweak of a tweak.  Rob Conery took Jon Lam's "Vibrant Ink" theme and tweaked it to make his version of a "Textmate" theme for VS, and then updated it again later.

I've taken the updated version and tweaked in some very minor variations -- some different brace matching colors for my copy of ReSharper at work, and a few different highlighting colors.  Nothing to write home about really, but this is as good a place as any to store it for the next time I need to setup Visual Studio.  Thanks to Rob for his great theme!
