Title:  It would help if someone could give me the html colors for the game, 
like the orange or brown or whatever that is that's FNA and the nice blue 
that's Kand.  I'll gladly use those colors.  I'm not very good with color.  
:(  I'll probably whip out some program that'll tell me, sometime, but if any 
of you guys just happen to know them I'd be much obliged.  :)

News table:  I removed it.  Now it's just headings and paragraphs.  I don't 
like table-based layouts at all and try to avoid them, for the most part.

Green:  Yeah, it's green, barely.  It's #a0baa0 if you were wondering.  It's 
the same background that's on my site, just used a little differently.  :)  
Right now I'm just copying and pasting pieces from my own stylesheet and then 
changing them.  There are a few things I always do, like indent the 
paragraphs farther than the headings, resize the headings (browser default 
heading sizes vary too much), and a few other things.

I'm rewriting my own website, and while I'm at it I'm going to knock out all 
the outstanding website work that's on my plate (crimson isn't the only site 
I'm looking at besides my own, either ;)  ).  I'm about to write a news 
engine for my site, and it's my intention to use that news engine on the 
crimson site as well.

One more question:  There's a feature request script that I wrote up for 
audacity.  Are you guys interested in having it?  I.e. would it get used?  
Audacity's user base is pretty large right now, I suspect that Crimson's is 
pretty small and this script might be overkill.  But it's pretty.  :)
