Is any one knows how can i change the default (light blue) skin
of visual studio 2010 ???
Thanks,
Liran
The easiest way to change the Visual Studio 2010 skin is to download the Visual Studio Color Theme Editor extension.
You can download the extension from the online gallery (click the link) or you can do it from inside Visual Studio (go to Tools --> Extension Manager --> Online Gallery --> Search for Visual Studio Color Theme Editor).
After you install the extension and restart Visual Studio, you should be able to change the skin.
You can download Visual Studio Color Theme Editor from the Extension Manager. (Tools -> Extension Manager)

Is there Sublime theme for Visual Studio 2015?
For example for Visual Studio 2015 Color Theme Editor .
Themes from Studio Styles not correct working with Visual Studio 2015.
The default color scheme of Sublime Text is Monokai by Wimer Hazenberg and I bet there are several attempts of porting it to Visual Studio. I'm not sure whether there's a full theme, since Sublime Text has very little of a UI that could be ported.
Here are several that I found online:
You can build Monokai (and other) color schemes for Visual Studio using base16-builder
There's a Monokai port for download at Studio Styles
…and several others available on GitHub
I want to change my VS2012 theme to blue theme like in visual studio 2010.
I installed the Theme Editor, but after installing it I couldn't find any blue theme.
I know there are some threads in SO about that, but all of them are about Theme Editor, which doesn't work in my case.
Any ideas?
Did you search for "visual studio 2012 update 2" since the link doesn't exist like you said? I did, and I found update 3.
Blue theme update: The Blue theme is now part of Visual Studio 2012 Update 4, and is no longer included as part of the extension as of version 2.3. Please ensure VS Update 4 is installed if you want to update the extension while continuing to use the Blue theme.
If you don't want to install update 3, which is ~5GB (seriously??), you can instead install Theme Editor extension ver 2.2, which included the Blue theme. I don't know if MS provides the (2.2) download anymore, but I found it here;

This link contains some themes for Visual Studio. look at Visual Studio 2010 Blue Replica This theme restores Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 back to the colors used in the default theme of Visual Studio 2010
after downloading :Choose Tools -> Customize Colors -> import theme -> select vs2010.vstheme then enjoy
PS : These require the VS2012 or VS2013 color theme editor extension
Is there anyway to change VS2012 theme look like VS2010?
If you install the theme editor, you get a huge improvement. The Blue theme is like VS 2010.

In addition to the theme editor Andy mentioned, there is also a project in Codeplex that allows you to import VS 2010 icons into VS 2012

I installed a version of Visual Studio 2010, but it has no Theme menu. I installed it on some other machines but none of them has the Theme menu.
I can only use the default theme. How can I add the Themes menu to my copy of Visual Studio?
The "Theme" menu is not part of Visual Studio 2010, so it won't be there with a standard installation.
It is provided by an extension called the "Visual Studio Color Theme Editor", which you must install on your computer first before you can change themes.
You can download it here from Microsoft's Visual Studio Gallery website.
