What I'm looking for is a dark skin for Eclipse v3.3 on Win7. I mean not just the code editor in dark, but the whole dark IDE together with toolbars and stuff. I know it's possible in Ubuntu, but I have to stick to Win7 for now and it rips my eyes off.

1One hint would be to stop using eclipse 3.3. The recent 4.2 release has better skinning capabilities – kostja Aug 09 '12 at 09:12

By the way, how would you do it in ubuntu? – kostja Aug 09 '12 at 09:13

Well, it's impossible to switch to 4.2 because it is an Eclipse-based tool with tons of extra features. – svz Aug 09 '12 at 09:16

Accept my sincere regrets then. AFAIK, there is no way. I too have searched far and wide... – kostja Aug 09 '12 at 09:26

I have put together a collection of steps that get you to a beautiful Dark Theme: https://github.com/davidcoleman007/VibrantNight
Which tool is it? Flash Builder? It can be tricked to work with other versions of eclipse, as you can see in my instructions! Tell us which tool it is and we might be able to help you hack a newer eclipse to work for you!
