    I liked VC6 but VS2002/2003, VS2005, VS2008, and VS2010 turned me into a VC6 diehard. The future Microsoft IDE promised to be forever unstable, bloated, slow, and crammed. And, then, here comes VS2012. What a nice change. Yes, the color scheme is absurd and so are the screaming menus. But it seems to actually be able to run without crashing every ten minutes. The layout is understandable and responsive. The GUI will require a lot of customization for it to become useful to me. Are you guys aware of any links/resources/etc out there in the wild? Searching has returned remarkably little. Thank you all.

      I've never really had any reliability problems with Visual Studio (other than the elimination of the MDI windows).

        I agree, terrible idea to remove them.

          I hate to make a "me too" post but I agree 200% with this lament. The MDI feature was a greatly used piece of functionality that is sorely missed. I don't know what MS was thinking.

            Change the colours for menus, toolbars, tabs, titlebars, the text editor, and other environment colours. Color Theme Editor[^] Registry Entry to remove All Caps from menus

            HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\General\SuppressUppercaseConversion
            REG_DWORD value: 1

            Replace VS2012 icons with those from VS2010 but you do need VS2010 installed Icon Patcher[^]
