   vicelane.css — 56ViceLane Unified Design System
   Version 5.0 — Full Site Rebuild
   Forged Oak Studios · forgedoakstudios@gmail.com
   Last updated: June 11, 2026

   RETHEME NOTE — July 9, 2026:
   Palette flipped from dark (navy/amber/cyan) to light
   (cream/orange/magenta) per the "Vibrant Premium" direction.
   See design-system-addendum.md for full rationale.
   All selectors, mechanics (sticky positioning, ticker timing,
   hamburger-nav logic) are UNCHANGED — only color/font values
   were touched. Two contrast bugs were fixed as part of this
   pass: .cat-tag and .btn-cyan previously used black text on
   what is now a dark magenta background — both switched to
   white text to keep WCAG-reasonable contrast.

   RULES:
   - This file is the ONLY place for shared styles
   - Every page links this — nothing duplicated inline
   - Ticker speed is LOCKED at 20s — never change
   - Nav and footer HTML is identical on every page
   - Change here once → whole site updates
