I like a very simple scheme that uses only a few colors and a light background.

I usually run vim in a 256-color terminal emulator (roxterm), on Debian Linux, and let vim inherit most of its colorscheme from the preferences I've set at that level.

Background, a slightly tone-downed white:
#FDFAF0  (set as ctermfg=7 in my vimrc)

Text, black with just a hint of blue-green:
#002B36 (set as ctermfg=8 in my vimrc)

Comments, a light gray, so they standout less than the text:
ctermfg=248

CursorLine and CursorColumn are set to ctermfg=none and ctermbg=229,
to highlight the current line with a pale yellow background.

StatusLine is set to ctermfg=0 and ctermbg=250,
for black text on a light gray background.

Error is set to ctermfg=red and ctermbg=7.

And that's it.  I don't use syntax coloring for anything else,
having finally decided that it's more annoying than it is useful.
(But that's just my opinion.  Your mileage may vary.)
