Gradiance
Theme name/layout: Gradiance

Layout info: originally Tranquility III

Users can change the 8-scale gradient, the page background, the default text color, the content/comment background color, and colors for active & visited links. As long as the contrast between the 4th color and the 8th color is enough to make text legible, the gradient can go from darkest-dark to lightest-light, or from medium-dark to medium-light, depending on the amount of contrast required. The CSS looks a little funky as a result, but it makes for some easy cut-and-paste to create new color schemes.
The links all go to a test post on my journal, which has multiple replies of varying types (anon, registered, openid) so you can those in action.

The substitute icons fill in when there's a blank for an anonymous poster, an RSS feed, a DW user, or an OpenID user. The last image the blockquote background. [ETA: after further testing, the regular icons look fine even on a reversed setup, so not seeing reason to do that extra bit.]
There are still some outstanding issues that I can't figure out. None of them are really deal-breakers, but if I can find answers to these questions, I'll edit the existing code to reflect the fixes.
I'm presuming separate layouts for reversed (light-on-dark) color schemes, but it seems like it'd be a LOT easier to give users the option of reversing the colors, with a simple yes/no question (which would then flip color_001 for color_008 and so on). Or is it better to treat each as separate themes, on the grounds that users wouldn't be aware ahead-of-time that the colors can be easily reversed in the wizard?
...I think that covers it!

Well, that's what you profile says and you have more icons that ordinary paid accounts are allowed to have so...
Sure!

The colors file for Gradiance I is at: http://www.karinoyo.com/media/gradiance-colors.txt
The colors for Gradiance II are all still on my layers-styles-thingie.
Given that there's a total of 111 color-combinations (although I could've sworn that should be an even number, ehhh) just in Gradiance I alone... it's entirely possible I did hit the wall of how much even a premium user could have!
