This theme restores Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 back to the colors used in the default theme of Visual Studio 2010. It is different from the blue theme included with VS2102.2 and VS2013. The biggest difference is the return of shading on menus, toolbars and tabs. The goal was to recreate the original theme as accurately as possible.
