This is slightly off topic, but I inverse the colours of _everything_.
So that I get light text on dark background _everywhere_ not just in
Vim. My eyes are over sensitive to light so If I didn't do this I
wouldn't be able to work for long without getting something called an
"eye migraine" (no head aches but weird visual effects and temporary
loss of vision).

If anybody is interested here is how you inverse the colours
everywhere (you need a HW accelerated video driver):

Linux: Use Compiz window manager (works fine with both Gnome and KDE)
and press Meta+M or Meta+N (you also might have to enable this feature
somewhere)

Windows 7: Use the "Magnifier" application, set it to "full screen"
with no magnification and turn on colour inversion. (you have to use
an "aero" desktop theme for this to work)

OS X: Press Command-Option-Control-8
