Pretty new site with user submitted VS (2005-2010) Color Schemes downloadable in .vssettings format. People can vote on them too. This site was sorely needed especially after Ning screwed over IDE Hot or Not.
It also includes a web based editor that is way more intuitive than the one in the options screen of Visual Studio. I have both a light and dark scheme I intend to submit.

Dina font for Visual Studio 2010
Updated: I've verified it works with VS2010 Release as well.
Thanks to the hard work of Erik Olofsson decoding the mystery of Embedded Bitmap Fonts I was able to convert one of my all time favorite programming fonts Dina into TTF usable by Visual Studio. The beauty of this technique is that it preserves the bitmap glyphs perfectly and the text rendering does not try to apply anti-aliasing or cleartype. See?
Visual Studio 2010
*bonus* I found that this font can also be used with any .NET application (WPF or Windows Forms) that normally can't handle raster fonts. Here's Dina used as the Grid font for SQL Server Management Studio
Download from my File Cabinet If anyone wants to re-host this file let me know and I'll update the link
