There's also a Visual Studio extension I believe. Also, MS did say they would provide an official way to do this. I assume they haven't?

If there's an "official" way, I haven't been made aware of it. I assume by "official" you mean that some way will be found to "fix" this issue from inside VS. I also await (eagerly) an official way to bring back the beautiful icons and colors of VS10 *sigh*

Yes, I assume "official" means a way from inside VS.

If there's a way in VSX (the core Visual Studio interfaces) to set the core IDE icons I've not found it yet. I have however figured out how to dynamically change add-in icons (messy, but it works), which helps my company a bit but doesn't solve the real problem.
One oddity to contend with is that if you add any colour icons to the IDE, switching to the dark theme will cause them to be inverted and have their luminance adjusted - which can have some odd effects.
I need to find the time to do more testing with VS2012 to see what else I can turn up.

Hi, guys, do you still remember Visual Studio 2003? no? well, it's back, with a new name called 2012... at least the look and feel...

You might be right that the more we use it, the better we understand and accept it. new stuffs require time to adapt

Disagree. I daresay I will get used to VS 2012 when I get round to using it but I found nothing wrong with colour and "distractions" in VS 2010.

But suppose I don't find it distracting in the first place?

That's why when in comes to Win32 I still want to use VS 6.0.

I didn't know that VS03 had black and white themes, and I used it quite a bit.

We can't afford to use stuff with bugs in, so we always wait a year or so till the patches start coming...

I agree. I usually wait 6 months to a year after it becomes a product to even consider switching. This was very good because the released version of Visual Studio 2010 has an optimizer bug that prevented our code from running. SP1 fixed that but if we upgraded before then we would have had to downgrade to continue working.

seems that VS2012 is much faster and light on system resources than the previous VS2010.
|

That is welcome news.

|
|
Yes, that's my impression as well
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, because now i can open 4 instance of VS2012 without greeting memory full.
Even if you are VS2012 using emulator is does not slow down system as it used to happen in VS2010.

That wouldn't be difficult! It still seems more sluggish than VS2008, though.

I agree. Visual Studio 2012 is much better than 2010 in this area. My main issue is that VS 2012 does not support anymore VS 2012 setup projects (and InstallShield Limited Edition does not works as well).

Unfortunately I am still lead to believe it has no ARM support inherently and so we are tied to an earlier version of VS. Please correct me if I am wrong on this.
