I had to test a couple of variations before being happy because the same colors are used in all types of terminal (I use regular cmd and Bash). Sometimes one color is great in one type of terminal but is clashing with another color, for a particular use case, in the other terminal!

(By the way, there is a color picker when you click a color)

Fortunately there is an "app distinct" option in the settings. You can pick different color profiles for different programs.
