VisualStudio 2010 Theme

Want a new theme for VisualStudio? Here are the steps I took in order to do just that.

First, download Visual Studio Color Theme Editor. It is a theme editor specifically for Visual Studio that is maintained by Microsoft. Second, follow the instructions in this post and download the Expression Color Theme. That post also describes how to switch between themes so be sure to read carefully. Lastly, visit this post to download the .vssettings for the Metroline color scheme. This color scheme will colorize the xml/csharp/javascript/etc. If you are unhappy with the font size and font style then simply go to Tools > Options > Environment > Fonts and Colors to change them accordingly.

As for my configuration, I chose the Dark theme in the Theme Editor along with the Metroline color scheme. They compliment each other well.
