actually, it's not that bad, i expected much worser results.

original 256 color mode:

and this is restricted to basic 16 colors:

still readable. my terminal has somewhat non-standard first 16 
colors (some colors are brighter than default xterm, some are 
not), that's probably why background becomes so bright. but it is 
still readable.

and this is 16 colors with "weighted translation" 
(0.30*r+0.59*g+0.11*b). looks surprisingly clean:
