[Dextrose] Messages notification UI look and feel, request for help :)

[Esteban Bordon]

It's a good Idea.
Here in Uruguay we are thinking about making a similar application that uses
some web service to show important messages for kids (for example, a new
geography content available, download the activity to change your laptop,
etc.)
