I tried to go black on white all the way a while ago, because it is annoying to switch between eclipse + websites and the terminal.
It seems however that the default gnome-terminal palette and most programs are optimized for white on black. With a lot of effort I found an acceptable 256-color scheme for terminal vim, but I gave up and reverted when the output "ack" became unreadable.
