I've been using Jellybeans for Vim (https://github.com/nanotech/jellybeans.vim) for some time and, try as I might, I can't make the switch to Solarized.

Nice theme! All of the vim themes I tend to see are very simple in terms of color. Understandable that some might find more than a couple colors to be distracting, but I find it very helpful.

Syntax highlighting was the one last thing I regretted leaving TextMate for, but yesterday I spent a day tweaking my own theme (based off of Tomorrow-Night https://github.com/ChrisKempson/Tomorrow-Theme , which does have a vim theme but I found it lacking and not at all like the TextMate version) and I like it so far. But it's nice to finally know of another theme with nice colors. Thanks :)

In fact I think I like the string highlighting on this one, I might try it on mine :)

Thanks for the recommendation. I've been using solarized, but I like the slightly higher contrast that Jellybeans provides. Just updated my configs and looked through a several different file types (.sh, .rb, etc) and I'll be using Jellybeans from now on. Thanks again!
