Content in Bartik Highlight and Help regions doesn't look to hot

Patch applying the same style as sidebar blocks to the highlight region.

Here is a screenshot of how it looks: http://skitch.com/ipwa/dkdn3/test-localhost

The whole region is styled with the border, do you guys think it should be each individual block instead?

I'll checkout Bartik head again and re-roll the patch, it would be nice to have the patch test bot on the Bartik queue.

Embedding above screenshot of the problem for easier viewing:

sick the bot on it, see if we need a re-roll, looks good though, nice and simple.

Needed reroll.

Screenshot from comment #1 with the original solution.

I'm going to look at this as soon as I can, and work on the design a bit.

Meanwhile, I'm bumping this to major. It's not major for Drupal in general — but looking at the list of Bartik bugs that are left, it's one of the more major ones. The Bartik teams needs to easily see what is the highest priority for us. I say this one is in the top 5 of what's left.

I'm kinda newbie to Drupal and it's my very first experience of creating patches, so please don't be angry if I did something wrong :-)

I just added a little "hotness" to blocks' style.
Files highlighted-bg.png and help-bg.png should be put into /bartik/images/ directory.
File bartik-highlighted-help.png shows how it should look like after applying the patch (I hope it won't fail).

Please review :-)

@#9/#10 - its too late for us to be introducing new design into core, especially for the actual help block.

@#7 - isn't the OP for highlighted and help, the patch only seems to cover highlighted? Whats the plan for blocks in help?

Reroll due to #862854: No styling for sticky.

@eugene.samoylenko ... Jeff is correct that it is too late in the process to make any drastic design changes, but don't get discouraged - there are plenty of issues that need themers to pitch in on and you nailed the process on your first patch :)

Alrighty. I'm proposing these simple changes — they fix the bug that exists now: namely when you use the help or highlighted regions, they don't do much visually. In fact right now, they are identical to each other.

There may be something wrong with that patch — Tim was having a hard time applying it. So here's a reroll.

Code looks good, the result looks even better. I really like the 120% on the #highlighted.

The Help region's styling is pushing it for what's acceptable post-RC. However, without something there, I agree that this is terribly weird + confusing.

So, committed to HEAD. Thanks!
