Description
The current notifications design could do with some improvements
- Avatars and action icons are fighting for attention
- Big action icons don’t look so nice and are very abstract
- The subject text is misaligned due to the avatar being inside the text at the beginning

This is a quick mockup for a design adjustment:
- Avatars are bigger and the point of focus
- Actions are overlaid, smaller, white and with shadow (standard classes
icon-white icon-shadow) - Text is now flush left because no avatar is inside the text
