I am new to terminals themes..

Please provide documentation on how to install these awesome themes.

@adardesign It's better to check out Google for this, and then follow the instructions but using the Solarized theme.

@adardesign I've found that I must manually change the Report Terminal Type to "xterm-color", which is not a listed option to get accurate colors in iTerm2. I've written to them about this and they still haven't added the option by default. You can find it in Preferences > Profiles > Terminal > Report Terminal Type, it's a drop down menu.
