Completely understand about the whole page views issues :) Would there be  
any partcular page to do a mockup of though, in logged in and logged out  
view? I'd like to do the same page as a skelleton for all the different  
mockups so its easier to tell what the differences are between them.

And people are totally free to recolor them as they want! More color  
options may result in some unique colorschemes ^^

Since I wasn't sure on the whole alt!sitescheme thing, I spent yesterday  
playing with the Core 2 style's CSS. Finished a light grey layout and am  
in the process of doing a dark version too:

Need to add in hover/visited colors for links and maybe replace the icons  
on the right (which, being semi transparent, look washed out on the dark  
version)

Was considering alternate colorschemes in dark purple, apple green,  
chocolate brown and dark jean!blue or teal!blue - but wasn't sure which,  
if any, people would like. If anyone has a prefernce on that, drop me a  
line privately :)

Will post it up on my lj layout comm and pimp it on mintyapple - but  
again, not sure where to post it on DW >_>

Even if core 2 isn't quite finalized yet, it's still interesting to work  
with it (and rather easier than expressive/mixit, at least on the learning  
curve, lol)
