The homepage mixed four different translucent washes (surface 44-60% plus a
backdrop-filter each), rendered the same four counters twice, and showed a
dangling "Welcome to " eyebrow because the localized string expected the hotel
name. A missing theme wallpaper replaced the whole sky gradient with flat
white, and stale CMS image references produced broken images and 404s.
Replace the ad-hoc panels with one opaque, theme-derived `.panel` token set
(surface, border, shadow, header, radius) and a `.panel-float` variant for the
counter strip that straddles the hero edge. The strip is now the single home
of the four headline counters; a failed read renders "unavailable" instead of
silently dropping a cell. Add the fourth feature card (Games) that already had
translated copy, link recent users to their profiles, and fall back to themed
placeholders for news covers and camera photos without an upload.
Add `pages.home.heroEyebrow` to all 25 locales, layer the CMS wallpaper over
`--site-bg-gradient` instead of replacing it, and keep the sky in dark mode.
Add `publicAssetExists` so local uploads that no longer exist are skipped
(wallpaper, help topics) rather than rendered broken. Fix the `/help` topic
icons to use the `/assets/images/help-center/` base the detail page already
used.
Throttle the spotlight glow to one update per animation frame, drop the dead
`.glass-chip` rules, define the missing `.panel-float`, and fix the stat
divider and reduced-motion selectors. Stat labels use the readable text token
so they clear WCAG AA, and the language button's accessible name now contains
its visible label.

Use the shared LiveOnlineCount so the landing top bar reads "0 <hotel> online"
instead of a bare number, and drop the hotel name from the left (the logo
stays) so it is not shown twice.
The homepage duplicated the online count and recent-user avatars (hero plus
community sidebar), and the public pages each kept their own chrome. Put one
AuthTopBar at the top of index, login and register — logo + hotel name plus a
live online indicator and the language/clock/theme controls — and drop the
duplicated hero rows.
- add theme-aware helpers: btn-brand, btn-glass-dark, auth-input, auth-label,
auth-alert, explore-pill, avatar-tile, aurora blobs and a hero scroll cue
- reorder backdrop-filter declarations so the glass blur survives the
production CSS optimizer in modern Chromium
- hero: aurora glow, frosted recent-users chip, premium CTA buttons and cue
- explore nav: icon pills with hover arrows; features: gradient icon tiles
- stats: single glass panel with column dividers; join CTA: aurora + ring
- auth forms: visible labels, icon inputs, eye/password toggle, gradient
submit and pill footer links
- auth pages: gradient card frame, aurora accents on the intro panel and
hover-lift avatar tiles; unified pill-shaped top bar
- drop the hard-coded register banner image in favor of the framed card
- New src/lib/site-icons.ts: base64 data URIs for the 13 tiny classic
icons actually referenced in markup (100–2000 bytes), replacing extra
requests with inline payloads. home.png, dynamic flags and currency
sets stay on the filesystem.
- Default favicon is now served server-side as a base64 SVG data URI
(memoized), while a DB-configured custom favicon still takes priority.
- Icons render through <Image unoptimized>, so data URIs pass through
untouched on all affected pages (home, login, register, settings,
navigation, auth top bar, client loading).
