    We're slowly getting to the point where we should talk about CSS for official threads.

    We (or someone who can actually make nice CSS threads) have to make graphics for the points. I have 2 versions on mind: One simple with Pikachu head, Eevee head and some kind of mashup (for total points) and points written underneath (similar to the last year's GT's points per house) or create 3 different "experience" bars that would fill with points. These bars should have visible mark for new clues.

    Then there is one thread with GT discussion, which could have its own CSS. Or we can re-use the one already made. But I would rather use it on announcing thread.

    I also want to make interactive "clue board" where I would like to put all the known clues and story events.

    Oh and what about the badges under the name like last year? Would that make sense? It could. Users could decide who they want support - Pikachu or Eevee and get badge based on that.

    Is there anything else I forgot about?

    Do you think you could do something like this?

    I'm fairly sure I can do that but I just want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. You want me to make small pictures of a Pikachu and Eevee head to represent points?

    Also, I can make experience bars, but they would need to be manually updated and cannot be automatic or run the same way LoP is run.

    Lastly, what theme do you want me to go with? Like, what's the color scheme I should shoot for? Any images I should use? etc. I need a little more creative direction to work from.

    Do you remember how it was done last years? There was a art of the Pokémon with the points written underneath them. I think it can be easily just by using Pokémon Shuffle sprites, but only problem is with total points as I'm not sure what could represent that.

    I know they will have to be updated manually, but I think it shouldn't be that bad to update them once per day. But I made this to show you how I imagined them when I talked about them. As for the color scheme I would go with Yellow/Black for Pikachu and Brown/Cream for Eevee and some kind of mix for both:

    I'm not sure. If you could find Team Rocket logo or some fitting grunt/admin sprite, that should be enough. Otherwise re-use Pikachu and Eevee again. Maybe putting them next to each other as one marker?

    couldn't find a fitting logo sprite so i used a grunt -> admin (giovanni) instead :'D
    edit - we can still add more markers to it theoretically

    I also want to make interactive "clue board" where I would like to put all the known clues and story events.

    Not sure how to describe it, but I have a draft of the code here. It still need some work, but I hope the idea behind it is clear:
