Indeed, using :set background=dark (in a bright *and* dark terminal) improves the situation. Please note that I tried all colorschemes also in an inversed terminal (but without background=dark). The contrast is nevertheless bad. Bright blue on blue or pink on red are not optimal. The older settings where better. The contrast can be calculated as described in http://www.w3.org/TR/AERT#color-contrast (the RGB color space in not optimal).
