I'm not sure what has happened, but this morning when I opened PhpStorm the background of the editor is now white even though the selected theme is still Darcula - any idea? It was all good last night - but now it's all white.
You are looking in the wrong place. The background color (and the code colors) is not determined by the theme, but by the scheme.
You can choose the scheme by going to Editor > Colors & Fonts:
You also have a preview of how the scheme will look like on every file type:
You have to set "scheme" in "editor->colors and fonts" to darcula.
There are several other dark editor schemes you could try.
Go to Preferences -> Colors & Fonts -> General -> Default Text -> Background Color and uncheck the inheritance box and select your color.
I had the same problem when I installed the new PHPStorm V10.

Some dialog windows of PhpStorm are using a black color to text and over a black background sometimes is hard to read.
Can I change the color of these inputs using some settings?
EDIT: The behaviour can be simulated selecting the theme Darcula and the scheme Default
"EDIT: The behaviour can be simulated selecting the theme Darcula and the scheme Default"
It is expected behavior in your case -- you are trying to use dark GUI Theme (Darcula) with light Color Schema (Editor area colors) which meant to work with light GUI Themes.
But yes -- such color is possible to change.
Settings/Preferences
Editor | Colors & Fonts | General
Text | Default Text
Change/Assign desired color to Foreground styling option

Actual result:
P.S.
I've used Darcula GUI Theme + Default Color Schema.
It's possible that you may need to restart IDE for other combinations.
Resetting the settings maybe possibly fix the problem

The text is very hard to see in a dark console.
How can I change those colors?
I'm using PhpStorm Darcula Theme
You have to modify the theme e.g
Open
Preferences -> Editor -> Colors & Fonts -> Console Colors
Then press Save As button and give theme copy name and change the desired color, as given below
Change gray color in 'Console colors' to F1DDDD, to get same effect as on the image.
UPDATE: now color name is White(Gray) instead of Gray.
When a window is active in xcode project navigator background color blue, and when two or more it is default. How to make that it was always defaulted?

There's two ways to change colors in Xcode.
First is the "Fonts & Colors" tab in Xcode's preferences, which look like this:
That doesn't change the color of the files in the Project Navigator, though. To do that, in System Preferences there's a tab helpfully named "General", you can change the settings for your system in it. Here's what it looks like for me now:
I chose "Graphite", and that changes selected files in the Project Navigator to have gray surrounding the filenames.
So, the problem was on the system side. The wallpapers color mixed with color of IDE. I reduced transparency. So that was it.
Code inspections are highlighted on the right-side of the editor as red/yellow lines. I want to change the background color of the entire column (not the color of individual inspections).
In previous versions of PhpStorm (with the Darcula theme), the column was a grey color. In PhpStorm 10, it is now transparent. Is there a way to change the background color?
Not really. That color is part of the IDE Theme which is not user configurable.
But you can show some background there:
Help | Find Action...
Look for Registry there (exact match)
Once got inside Registry window look for editor.transparent.scrollbar and uncheck it (user modified values will be displayed in bold .. so make sure you have changed it, not just "Click and that's enough")
I have a problem with colors in photoshop and browser. Why the same color (#cccc66) looks different? This in photoshop http://gyazo.com/a4f4181bf0638d652174f0a7d4f1fe9d.png and this in browser http://gyazo.com/37a9ad028951e85a288344f59c84ecc7.png. What could it be?
Some additional info. It's not image. I just used Eyedropper tool to get color then copied color name from color picker.
It's called color profiles, the PNG has one embedded. You need to strip it out. Photoshop apparentely does weird things with "Save for Web" when color profiles are active.
This may help: http://www.viget.com/inspire/the-mysterious-save-for-web-color-shift/
Open up any image on your machine and File / Save For Web. Next to the Preset option, there's a sneaky little arrow...click it and uncheck "Convert to sRGB."
I think this tutorial should do the trick:

Also, you might want to have a look at this (it's basically the same, but with "Proof Colors" enabled in the "View" menu):

How you export this image from Photoshop? Did you use Save for Web & Devices (File -> Save for Web & Devices)? Also you can have to set up proper color profile (Edit -> Color settings), because some formats have embedeed your current color profile.
