Part 3 - Giving the service status a nicer look.

On the last part I build the page without giving to much into how the whole thing looked. Now I had some time to look into this and also taken some help from colleagues with more eye for design than I will ever have. I also thrown in some HTML-fields and client script to automate the function of Valid to. This is how I did it.

Making your own "new Feature" window

Been having some trouble reaching out to the users with our own "new releases" and the information about our own fixes and new functionality. Looking at the community I realized that I wasn't alone with this problem. Today people are getting flooded with information through email so we threw that idea out the window. We also tried to publish the releases with knowledge articles, but the success hasn't been overwhelming.

So now I was thinking that perhaps we should do like ServiceNow and throw up a popup windows when user logs in. And this is how I did it.
