Gonna have to concur. I think the problem is they tried to match the win8 metro UI to it; I don't know how many developers would willingly use the metro UI, though.

Indeed. Too bad skinning VS itself isn't as easy as changing the syntax highlighting. :[

I remember back in the days of XP when you could skin everything rather easy.

In case anyone else stumbles across this there's a plugin to help you change your colors easily, I don't know how my searching didn't bring me to this originally.

It can't change the icon sets, but the blue scheme is fairly close to vs2010.
