Loving these colour themes, using the orange one atm and it looks very nice. The green one above looks equally nice.

Just found out that Blorange has a nice effect when used with Red Slate. ^_^
Otherwise it looks great by itself, just a little too solid for my tastes but still good.

Downloaded the latest from Git but I don't see some of the stuff here (like the black/orange theme). Is that something I need to download separately?
And a stupid question: what's the difference between THEMES and COLORS in the settings?

Theme = theme package including graphics and a default color scheme
Color = color scheme for the text, menus, borders, etc.
If you've ever customized your Windows environment, it's a close analogy. "Theme" is like the Windows theme that includes the desktop background image and a default color scheme whereas "Color" is only the color scheme component.
A good example is the Mosaic Blue theme on the first page of this thread that contains both the Mosaic_Blue.xpr theme file and 2 different color schemes (Mosaic_Blue.xml and Mosaic_Blue2.xml). The .xpr theme file applies the mosaic pattern in the background and specifies the default Mosaic_Blue.xml color scheme. However, after you've applied the theme you're free to use any color scheme, even Red Slate or night for funky color combinations.
