Here's another post that calls Sublime's default theme "pretty ugly" and "god-awful": http://floatleft.com/notebook/making-sublime-text-2-beautiful http://floatleft.com/notebook/making-sublime-text-2-beautifu...

I love the icon. I don't have an opinion about the default theme except to say that part of the whole point of Sublime (to me) is to find a custom color theme for your code. It's like css for your workspace! I use a modified Cobalt that has much more green in it. Honestly I love that Sublime allows you to fulfill that urge to express yourself while you're expressing yourself (yo dawg etc.).

I think ST2's chrome is functionally bad, rather than aesthetically, and I'm not sure it can be fixed with themes. The way the sidebar and the tab bar interact to show which document is active can be extremely confusing.

  I have the same problem its not as clean cut on a mac as say textmate. On linux windows its a fair bit suited to the environment. The initial code theme is pretty ugly thank god for themes like tomorrow, soda and similar. I find the blog post with a title "setting up sublime" that doesnt cover the package manager for plugins pretty laughable. Its kind of the best part..
