- New AvBeatLogo inline-SVG component (rounded-square emblem with
forward-leaning AV monogram + horizontal beam detail) at
src/components/AvBeatLogo.tsx, three variants (full/wordmark/icon).
- Header.tsx now uses the responsive AV BEAT logo lockup in the
top-left, links to /, full lockup on desktop (emblem+wordmark+tagline),
emblem+wordmark on tablet, emblem-only on mobile.
- Removed DualSpeedTicker (the 'RECENT FORUM POSTS' ticker strip);
the news ticker / glow chrome does not match the new aesthetic and the
forum row was the explicit removal target.
- Tailwind theme + globals.css now expose the AV BEAT 2026 palette as
semantic tokens: --brand-blue (#1D4ED8), --brand-blue-bright (#38BDF8),
--brand-navy (#0F172A), --brand-bg (#F8FAFC), --brand-surface, --brand-border,
--brand-text, --brand-text-muted. Legacy --color-* aliases re-point to the
new tokens so any inline-styled component re-themes for free.
- Site-wide hex sweep migrates 2,769 hardcoded color literals across 144
files from the old dark-broadcast palette to the new tokens (orange
-> blue, dark-brown -> white surface / navy text, cream -> navy).
- Layout body class flipped from 'bb-neon' to 'bg-brand-bg text-brand-text'
so the dark glow chrome no longer leaks through the new light theme.
Replace the four accent-family hex codes site-wide with the teal palette
(keeps the dark theme; only swaps the accent family, not the dark base):
#3b82f6 (accent primary CTA) → #5B7C8D (teal) [839×]
#2563eb (accent-dark / hover) → #4A6473 (darker teal) [44×]
#60a5fa (info link, lighter) → #8FB0C3 (mid teal) [68×]
#1e3a5f (accent-muted bg) → #2F4F5F (navy) [44×]
tailwind.config.js tokens updated to match (accent/accent-dark/accent-muted).
Sweep also covers tailwind.css. 108 files touched. The dark base (#0d0d0d,
#111, #161616, #1a1a1a etc.) is intentionally untouched.
