Hi,

I use sanityinc-solarized-dark and like it very much.

My major grief is that web-mode syntax highlighting is mostly white and gray and hardly readable. html-mode is OK. I would highly suggest we should pick some nice colors for the web-mode and sanityinc-solarized theme.

Including the screenshots to illustrate it. It's not very readable. And web-mode seems to be somewhat popular. AFAIK, the plain solarized theme for Emacs includes web-mode specific hacks to address this.

And now the standard html-mode:

I agree, and would be happy to receive a PR -- I don't use web-mode myself, and so I'm unlikely to fix this proactively.
