If you love Sublime Text 2 and the Monokai Color Style, here's a similar theme/skin for the Arduino IDE. There are not enough system variables to make it exact, but it's much better than the default.

####INSTALLATION
- PREFERENCES.TXT
On Windows, located here:%AppData%\Roaming\Arduino
replace yourpreferences.txt
with mine. - THEME FOLDER
On Windows, located here:..\arduino-1.0.5\lib\
replace thetheme
folder inside (making a copy of the original in case you hate my changes!) This folder contains a 'themes.txt' file with the bulk of the changes (mostly colors). Buttons and tabs are stored as image files, which have been modified to fit the color scheme
####PSD 'BUTTONS' FILE
The theme
folder also includes a Photoshop (.psd) file for the buttons which includes a saved selection for easier changing of the background. This can be accessed through the 'Channels' panel.
