And for all my filetypes it's all the same.

I do the same thing too -- just my "timchase.vim" colorscheme.

Very rarely, I'll define a syntax-coloring item on-the-fly for a particular file, but I can't say I do that more than 1-2x in the course of a year. And it doesn't get saved anywhere outside that particular editing session.

Why for example do you prefer dark color schemes (black/grey
brackground, soft letter colors).

For me, I prefer light-on-dark instead of dark-on-light because I find it easier on my eyes -- fewer photons bombarding my optic nerves. It's been my choice ever since I had Turbo Pascal's IDE with the ability to set my color preferences (back in the late 80's or early 90's).

My preference would be for my entire PC to use such a colorscheme (including Thunderbird and my browser's defaults), but enough programs break by assuming black text will appear visible, forcing their font-color but not background-color. I've had better success in Linux (than Win32 or Mac) with setting my system (GTK) scheme to be grey-on-black, but some apps still have enough issues with it to use dark-on-light for my defaults. At least Vim (and my xterm/rxvt) allows me to do as I please.
