If your color settings are simple and if you don't ever change
colorschemes, you can put them in your ~/.vimrc.  Otherwise, you
should make your own colorscheme file, say juan.vim, and put it in
~/.vim/colors.  Then put this command in your ~/.vimrc:

    colorscheme juan

This has a good overview of how to create your own colorscheme file:

    :help 06.3

You might also look at the other sections of that file,

    :help usr_06.txt

and browse $VIMRUNTIME/colors to see what others have done.

Gary
