For use with Growl

GrowlHUD

In a quest for a more subtle Max OS X-style notification design for Growl I noticed how well the HUD:s in various Apple applications (such as iPhoto editing) work. They are dark and do not steal too much attention, they look good in the system as a general and they are designed to display information.

GrowlHUD also includes support for priorities.
