Subject: [PATCH] Add NotifyRedAlert inherited from NotifyAlert
Date: Mon, 14 Jun 2010 02:51:23 +0530

Adds the NotifyRedAlert class which is an alert inherited from
 NotifyAlert. When the alert message is displayed, it glows the
alert bar Red before slowly fading out to black, thus resulting
in a more visible notification.
