I wrote this documentation page on how to use the color module in a Garland subtheme: http://drupal.org/node/1969060
In it, I assume that you do not need to copy over the Garland style.css into your subtheme folder. This seems to be true until you put the site in Maintenance Mode and view it as an anonymous user.
I assume this is the case because the Color module is turned off to the outside world and therefore the path to the new stylesheet is not included in the maintenance page.
Is this how things should work?
Should I simply be changing the theme to Garland when in Maintenance Mode?
Am I getting something wrong about how to use the Color module in a Garland subtheme?
Should I be overridingthe maintenance-page.tpl.php file in my subtheme to somehow include this path?
