New Post Indicator Color

So far I am a fan of the new design. This is the kind of stuff I do for a living, so it is nice to see a refresh.

I noticed on the update that the box that indicates new posts in the thread you are reading, is now gray (used to be red) which kind of just blends in with everything else. Before it was easy to see where you left off the previous time you were in a thread. Coupled with the responsive design (YAY, finally!) and a large monitor, pretty much can't even see it over there.

Any chance this is going to get flipped to a slightly higher contrast color? Not saying it has to be red if you are shifting your color palette, just something that stands out more than gray (although that is still the color used to make new events, alerts, etc in the menu bar).

Should be an easy CSS modification of the class " .message .newIndicator"

Any thoughts?

Sounds good.

So far, loving it, and it's great to be able to use the site on mobile (in person trades with a location choice does NOT work in the app, so I am happy I can browse that now). No more app for me.
