All creds for the new theme go to Tek! The new design with the lightful colour scheme is on my wish list. A few things I'll be looking into when I have more time off school:Skilling calculator(s)GP/XP calculator(s)Clan hiscore (similar to Runeclan's but with some additional features)Multiple theme choices on the beta siteUser editable staff pagesSetting up a cron job for the twitter feed, as it needs to be manually fetched atmIf you have suggestions of features you would like to see, let me know. It should probably be noted that I'm more of a back-end developer while Tek does mostly front-end.To give you an example of a few things that are within the realm of possibility:Previous name checker (wouldn't be 100% accurate due to bonds, but that can still be accommodated for in some cases by e.g. stat comparison algorithms)A lobby chat bot to host trivia games in the CC, look up GE prices for clan members etc (could have similar commands as the runescript bot on irc). Not sure if this would be banable or frowned upon by Jagex, as it would be in the lobby at all times and not provide any in-game advantagesNative avatar tracker that's quick to add/remove user access to. Could also calculate how much time each user has had an avatar outUsername subscription, receiving an e-mail when a desired username becomes availableHowever, with my lack of programming knowledge (databases in particular), working in a safe mode environment on the server and without any shell access, I'm somewhat limited in what can be accomplished
Looks awesome thanks Tek and Red.Some things like the new Consentus log with the rocktail and stuff only appears on the new skin, I still use the darkness skin as its much easier for me to read than on the new one, but is it supposed to be showing just on the new skin?

I understand that some people may use another theme for different reasons, so I have added the new logo to the old themes.
Thank you for maintaining the old themes, my only problem with the new theme is that the contrast of the text and background is not enough for my eyes I really have a hard time trying to read something (especially the purple text) on the new theme that's why I'll keep using the darkness one.But I have to say it looks amazing well done.
Not really a suggestion but I'm noticing a lot of lag when things are loading on the homepage. I'm not sure where the source is but I have a feeling it's with the scrolling within Consentus news, might be worth checking that out.

I personally haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary. The scrolling functionality is with a single html element (marquee) so it shouldn't be slowing anything down on a noticeable level
