How can I make Guake terminal and Terminator as beautiful as gnome terminal

Question

I have the following screenshot of my Desktop:

As you can see the gnome terminal is more colorful than the others and I wonder how does Gnome terminal looks so colorful and how other terminal emulators can be as colorful as Gnome's one?

Firstly, to get a colorful prompt, open .bashrc and find this line:

# force_color_prompt=yes

Then uncomment it by removing the # from the beginning of the line.

Now right click in "terminator" and choose "Preferences", go to profiles tab, then select colors. from the pallet section you can choose different schemes:

Now your terminator looks like this:

You should be able to follow same steps for guake or any other terminal emulator.
