/* CV Mojo v3 - the McCain / Shocal family, in a warm CV Mojo palette with one deep anchor.
   Warm cream pages; full-width bands in rotation (cream, tangerine, navy, sky, sunshine, mint) with
   gently slanted edges; smooth, solid organic blobs; quirky swatch buttons; round flat badges; wonky
   photo frames. Lockups pair a small slab-serif line (Alfa Slab One) with one huge hand-lettered word
   (Mouse Memoirs); body text is Nunito.
   Colour rules: navy is the anchor (text, logo, dark bands, the main button), never a big bright splat.
   No yellow text on navy (cream or mint there; yellow only as a small badge or underline). No big
   sunshine shape touching a big navy one. Tangerine carries navy text, never white (contrast).
   Teal is for ticks and graphics; --teal-t is the text-safe teal. No pink, no purple.
   Used only by the v3 preview (includes/site/v3/layout.php). Forms, the checker and body text stay
   plain and readable. The shapes are SVG masks (section 1), so any palette colour fills them flat. */
