Choosing a suitable emacs theme

Hi,

It may sound silly or stupid, but I really have a problem choosing a theme for my emacs.
I am using Ubuntu (12.04) and I use emacs on the x-console (emacs -nw) I have added the "emacs-goodies" package and tried all the themes in it to no avail.
My eyes are not comfortable with all these dark themes and to tell you the truth, I have no patience to play with my single-line .emacs file to build a new one.

All I want is a theme like those found, for instance, in the code examples of the www.cplusplus.com forum. Something similar to this image.

I would appreciate any help with this, really annoying, issue.

Thank you so much

Faizlo

Just another piece of info. My emacs version is: GNU Emacs 23.3.1
