Brian,
I've been talking with some co-workers who use AutoSPInstaller. We love the project, and in general we love the UX of the scripts. I'm going to steal several of your ideas for my own PowerShell libraries.
The only nitpick we have is that for the "progress bar" and a couple of other sections the ForegroundColor is Blue, and it's very difficult to read against the dark blue background that's the default for many (most?) people's PowerShell CLI.
Obviously this is a trivial change, and we can do it from our end, but the statements (currently 68) are sprinkled throughout the scripts, so it's a bit of a hassle to sync up whenever there's a new release. Is there any way you can work in a different ForegroundColor, or specify the BackgroundColor?
FWIW, if this were a Git repository you'd already have a pull request from us. Looks like you're the only committer for this project (#respect). If there's any way we can help with this (and other issues), just let us know.
Keep up the great work!

This is a great idea, I'd recommend just changing the dark blue for "Online" and "Done" to the green that is used to "verify" and "pass" the check of service accounts and database.
Examples:
- Waiting for Word Automation Service Instance... ONLINE
- Creating Project Server site collection at "PWA"... DONE
