Hi folks,
I have designed little bit better visible and usable flash messages
for our Conductor UI with much easier structure of HTML and using RH
official color palette.

What do you think about it?
I think these look much nicer!
However, I've noticed in the past that people can overlook our flash
messages because they can be so subtle. I think these will help, but I
wonder if it's worth giving them more aggressive backgrounds or
something.
I'm not sure it's as attractive, but I just forked that and put this
together: http://codepen.io/n1zyy/pen/xvfms
(Also: my first entry on codepen.io -- nifty site!)
I just set a background-color set to a lighten()'d version of the border
color. They're maybe a bit uglier, but they're harder to miss.
I agree with this approach, I think the flash messages are easy to miss
as well. Maybe the background color should be darker than you chose
here Matt. Nothing too jarring, but something that isn't subconsiously
dismissed.
Just a thought, in any case.
