The default colours for warnings and notes on the appdb pages feel rather strong, this patch changes the red and blue to be a bit softer.
I think this makes it more readable. A comparison can be seen here: http://jeffz.name/tmp/
In new.png the green looks darker than the others. Maybe it should be lightened up a bit too.

We might also consider inverting the color of the text to increase the contrast since it seems difficult to read.

I think this looks good, http://jeffz.name/tmp/suggestion3.png
Do you still think we need to change the green Francois?

I prefer to have the text in the colored bar because that way it matches the title at the top (Known bugs in suggestion.png).
So here's my proposal with a slightly lighter green and white text. http://fgouget.free.fr/tmp/newfg.png
But I don't have a strong opinion on this, so do as you think is best.

I like this order better. Warnings should be first, howtos second and notes last. Warnings should also be visible in 1024x768 mode as well.

The order and presence is specified by the maintainer, I just so happened to create them in this order when I was testing.
There's been no change to layout so this still looks fine in 1024x768 too.

+1.

+1. It appears that this screen layout is now the default (when I learned to program HTML it was 680x400 or smaller, i.e. webTV.)
I look forward to implementation of the new colors.
