Visual Studio Black Background?

I watch a lot of tutorials on the web, expesially ASP.NET tutorials - And constantly notice that everyone seems to have VS set with a black background and yellow/white text?

Why is this? and how can I set up my version to look like it?

Thanks

It is Rob Conery's TextMate theme that you want.

After Download in Studio ... Tools > Import & export settings and follow the wizard.

Share and enjoy!

For VS2012 : if you want to simply change the default black and white background then ; Go to Tools ->Options -> Environment -> General. Right side pan, you you will see Color theme drop down;select Dark or light in order to get basic black and white background.

if you want to change default color,Font or Font size then you select ; Tools ->Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors

Check out shanselmans blog article about this, he lists quite a few of them, so pick one you like. Personally, I've got the Monaco font installed, and I love it!
