Site Update
For a while now it's been said that crystal checking designs seems extremely complicated, and that while the old article was jam packed full of information... it was also a little daunting to read. I've had a lot of positive feedback about a guide I made on tumblr what seems an age ago, so I have updated it a little to fix my mistakes and have posted it to the knowledge base with hopes that the step-by-step guide will help even more people!
Along with it, you will see there have been some pretty major updates to modifiers - including some that have been asked for - to help simplify them for every day use.
I apologise that the transparency calculations section has not been completed yet,
but that part it turns out is trickier to explain and understand, and I want to make sure that it's crystal clear before unleashing it on you guys =)
There is also a slightly terrifying Humanoid rule article under way. I apologise in advance for any nightmares I cause (the mods still haven't forgiven me),
but I'm hoping to engage a real artist to do some better examples soon!
Hopefully all of this will help, and if there's still things that need some better explanation please let me know down below so I can see what I can do about clearing it up for you.

♥ Kat ♥ (#80) - Phew! I might manage to not scar anyone with it then XD We'll have to see if comedy or terror helps the rules stick in peoples minds more easily ^^

If the Histogram thing does not work properly in gimp, is there some thing in the works to help people who use it figure this out? Or would it just be better to ask a friend who has another program that works with it to do the check?
