Tutorial TutorialDecember Update: Dark Theme!
That's right, it's finally here: DARK THEME!
We've made some major changes to the site layout and structure, so even users who continue to use the Light Theme will notice some changes to the colors around the site! For sake of ease, we have reduced the hundreds of colors (we had way more than fifty shades of gray) to a much smaller handful of colors that are set by variables. This makes for much easier adjusting on the admin side of things - at least it's easier for me, since CSS has never been my strong suit, haha.
Since this is a very major change, I do expect to see a few places where the colors are off or missing, so please report any stray colors in the new pinned Technical Support thread: Messy Site Colors & Images. We're also expecting to find quite a few images that need adjusting to suit the Dark Theme, since it's very easy for artists to miss a stray pixel when they export! Both of these issues should be reported in this new pinned thread.
You can change your theme anytime for free in the Customization tab of your Settings page.

...zzzz.... zzzz... wh....
Wh-what?! AH!! WHAT TIME IS IT?!
Scorch it... This late already? Sigh. At least I haven’t slept through my meeting - thanks ever so for waking me. No, there’s no need to concern, it is merely that I may have stayed up slightly later than usual, poring over the reports and filing documentation... There’s been so much to review...
The good news is that we've put together as many preparations as we can to defend against any possible return of that rogue AI, Specter, and we shall continue to be extremely alert. But, strangely... while attempting to corroborate her claims and investigate their implications, I feel like I’ve been stumbling into a black hole of questions, sinking deeper and deeper... And between my own reports, and the meetings with Marcus about his historical findings, and with Dione and the Shimmerfins about the nature of their abilities... There’s so much new information I have to consider, and explain to others... (The joys of being the Commander...)

Happy end of November everyone! I hope you have all managed to eat lots of good food this fall to prepare for the coming winter! The winds have been getting real chilly lately so I've been trying to pack on a few extra ounces before the inevitable barrage of snow starts.
You know what I've also been trying to pack on? Recolors!

Site Contest Winners: November 2021
We've concluded our November Site Contest, it seems. Hhhehh... It worked out well, seeing the rich variety of ideal worlds that you presented to us. I've always felt that the deep seafloor, free of distractions, was a fine place to dwell on problems, seeking out self reflection... But even I have found that the strength of discussing and consulting with a close friend can offer insights that were inscrutable in solitude.
I would like to commend those of you who showcased the trinkets you had collected, and shared the values you found in them...
