Hello William and thank you for your interest in helping with this task!

The www theming will be built around these colors:

It is and isn't. Color perception is relative to the adjacent colors.
The intense Sapphire colors work well when they fill the entire desktop.
When they are adjacent to a light background, like the website pages,
those colors might seem very dark and might need to have the value only
increased a bit to to compensate.

The final colors are posted later in that thread and a few lines above:

Yes. The colors will need to be inserted at the very end of that file
starting around line 1437.
The other three websites also have their individual style sheets.

The css we have already works in all browsers so I don't exactly see the
point but then colors are my thing not so much the mechanisms that
assign them. :)

Can we perhaps continue this discussion off-list or on IRC?
