You could try the following colour theme I maintain. It is designed
with dark backgrounds in mind.
<https://github.com/suvayu/.emacs.d/blob/master/themes/dark-emacs-theme.el>
To use this, set a custom-theme-directory and put the theme file there.
Then load the theme with `M-x load-theme RET'. If you like it you can
add the hash to the custom-safe-themes list. A note, you need Emacs 24
for this theme to work.
Hope this helps,
