Django Admin new look

2015-03-06 Thread Ryan Allen
These look very nice and are a step in the right direction. If you only 
overrode admin/css/base.css I see no reason why this change can't be made. 
Hanging on to the old design for legacy purposes has gone on long enough, it's 
time to update. I would make a pull request after ensuring the new design is 
fully tested and functioning properly.

Thanks Marc, good to hear from someone who really experiences color

Yes, thank you Russ. The conditions you mentioned were all considered when 
these 
screenshots <http://imgur.com/a/JaLPD> were created, with the exception of 
Deuteranomoly (reduced sensitivity to green) as the test results were 
nearly the same as the Protonomaly (reduced sensitivity to red) screenshots.

For good measure - Deuteranomoly Success Message

Design discussion: admin alert messages

https://github.com/django/django/pull/1715

Currently, all admin messages have a background color of light yellow, 
whether they are success message, warning message, or error message. Errors 
are displayed with red (#F00) text.

This pull request would give success messages a green background and errors 
a light red with dark red border and text.

Design discussion: admin alert styling update

2013-10-07 Thread Ryan Allen
Up for discussion - https://github.com/django/django/pull/1715

The alert messages in the Django admin do not abide by the UX philosophy 
"Don't Make Me Think". All messages whether success, warning, or error, 
have a background color of yellow. This pull would change the bg-color of 
successes to green and errors to a light-red with red border. Also, the css 
color choice of red (#F00) would be replaced by shades friendlier to the 
eye, around #C11.
