title: Vim Solarized Light theme with wrong colors
body: <p>I'm having a hard time getting my Solarized Light theme to work properly on Vim.</p>
  
  <p>For some reason the color palette gets messed up and it doesn't look as expected. The contrast is different. But when I run Vim through MacVim, the colours look perfect as opposed to when I run Vim via Terminal.app (w/ bash).</p>

  <p>This is what my <code>~/.vimrc</code> looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>let g:solarized_termcolors=256                                                            
  let g:solarized_termtrans=1                                                               
  
  colorscheme solarized
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>On my Terminal.app under "Advanced" options I've set "Declare terminal as" to <code>xterm-256color</code> but that doesn't seem to fix the issue.
  I've also tried to mess around with the <code>t_Co</code> value (setting it to <code>8</code>, <code>16</code> and <code>256</code>) and it didn't fixed the issue either.</p>
  
  <p>This seem to be a common issue for Terminal.app users and even though there are a variety of threads created on the subject, I've not found an actual solution to the problem.</p>
