Dark-first design system

Home, nav, hero, footer, About, Directory, Events, and Tools now all run on the navy surface scale. Primary buttons are solid orange (#F47A28) for clarity. The orange→pink gradient is reserved as a brand accent on card tops, the footer top strip, and gradient-text on key phrases.

Futuristic community directory

Member cards now carry per-member gradient accent bars and match the brand card family. Filter toggles for Atlanta area, Speakers, and On LinkedIn. Join The Loop sits at the top of the page and at the bottom so newcomers see the path in.

PITL Tech Stack on /tools

Tools hero shows a calm floating cloud of nine core tools that power PITL. Tool cards below use bulleted 'Why we use it' and 'Not for you if' lists so you can scan quickly.

Consistent page heros site-wide

Every interior page now has the orange top-right corner glow, a subtle teal glow, and gradient-text on the key phrase in the H1. Section headings are left-aligned. Event filter pills are readable at rest without clicking.

ImprovedApril 19, 2026

Home page reorder

Home flow is now Hero → Silicon South events → Explore Atlanta → Silicon South → Free Community. Featured event cards show a category-colored overlay on the photo, eyebrow labels like FREE · COMMUNITY, and an orange 'View details →' link.

Tangerine design refresh

Bigger event detail modal

Click an event card and the modal now gives the photo about 30% more space so event posters read cleanly.

Home link in the nav
