Hi,
I see many times people create color schemes for vim.
With special names as well.
To me personally I have only one scheme with my personal prefferences.
And for all my filetypes it's all the same.
Why do you use several different color schemes?
What does it help you?
Why for example do you prefer dark color schemes (black/grey
brackground, soft letter colors).
I have a white background with black letters, or hard blue, green, red,
brown. Very readable (at least that's my opnion) and contrasting
keywords, syntax words, strings, ect.

Color schemes in Vim serve the same purpose (and are essentially the
same thing) as what may be named "themes" or "skins" in other kinds of
software: allowing some variety in the look-and-feel with no change of
functionality, so different people may each prefer a different
look-and-feel while at the same time they all enjoy the same
functionalities (including, in Vim, the ability to change functionality,
either at run-time by setting options, or at compile-time by including
or excluding features).
Myself, I'm "almost" content with the default colors of [g]vim, but not
completely, so I've created for my own use a scheme which I called
"almost-default" for lack of a better name. I don't think it's worth
being made part of the "official" distribution, especially since it
includes settings for User1 and User2 (which are used in the 'tabline'
function defined in my vimrc), so it is not really self-contained.
Best regards,
Tony.
