Look closely at the 0:, it's bold but it's not black like it should be. It's gray. It should be as black as the text that follows it.

It doesn't look too bad if the second 8 colors are very similar to the first 8 colors, as yours are. My #8-15 are very different from my #0-7 and it looks bad. In the above screenshot, there's no way to get bold and black in the first 16 colors -- there's only two instances of bold dark grey, #0 and #16. This is really annoying because things like vim, ls, git, diff, etc. use bold colors and only assume 16 colors, and there's no way for me to (for example) get both bold and black in my vim color schemes in urxvt. I can only get bold dark gray, and I can get it two ways (bold #0 and bold #8). That sucks. Why is urxvt changing the color of text when it's bold and the color number is < 8? I really, really dislike this and think it's a bug. I'd be happy to help make a fix.
