Just thinking out aloud here :S
That would be an example of far too much server load. It can be done easily with an SQL query check. Also, you cannot guarantee the page won't change every reload anyway, due to the amount of JavaScript, the time / date at the top, etc.

Go for it Smile I still like the "beige" color scheme though :S
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Funny thing is, had this site just been another blue-and white one, I would have skipped it and moved on.

That's why I wish there could be at least one different choice

No matter what colour scheme you have, someone won't like it.

I'll have a go unless you've already decided on the current one, which is quite good.

No, I just made that so I could have something there at least. Go ahead and make one if you think it'll work better. Rob is going to ask around some of his friends to see if we can get a "professional" one made.
