Maybe the background color for the error can be changed as well? I just got a colorblind tester and #FAAAAA for example provides a much better contrast than the current color. (ss attached)<div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Peter, most of the current UI theme was designed by someone who is red-green colorblind (me), and we avoid using color alone for encoding information. The change has been reverted, thanks for brining it to our attention.<div class="im">

Do you have any color blind developers or users testing Galaxy and any<br>
UI changes? Those of you with family members or close colleagues<br>
affected by this are probably well aware of the issue. If not, please<br>
keep in mind that red-green color blindness is fairly common, and that<br>
color alone should not be used to distinguish status changes.<br>
