Updated to the current version; I appreciate the option of being able to specify a CSS class per notification to be used. 
If anybody is interested in another example of a custom styling being used, check out http://BaconForum.com as a guest to see a cool design Shelley did! You may recognize him.

Thank you all for your patience and the several updates you did yesterday.
In my testing, we are currently bug free!
Now, let's see if we can't introduce some more bugs by way of some new features
Next version (1.2) will make the close button more functional.
The close button (maybe I'll call it the hide button) will now hide any notification for X number of days.
The mechanism I'm using for this is cookies. The reason I'm using cookies is because it will work easily with both registered and non registered users.
The cookie can also have a set expiry date (in days) which means the server doesn't have to do any thinking about who has hidden a notification and for how long.
The only problem with cookies, though, of course, is they are machine dependent and browser dependent. This means if a visitor uses two PCs or even just two different operating systems then they will have to hide the notification once on each machine. Likewise, if they disallow cookies, it won't work. Also if they clear their cookies, the notification will come back.
But I don't see that being a problem...
But one question. Should the amount of time the notification be hidden for be global, or should it be on a per notification basis?
For example, there might be some notifications that you want people to see every day, but others maybe once a week?

As Shelley says, you can just use any e-mail you've received previously and it will take you to the latest version.Have not got any mail of the latest version.
Have you got the latest version now?
Per notification basis

Chris, I would really like something like notifications shown after people have visited a specific node 10 times/logged in 10 times or something. Possible? The reason that some notifications really give attention, and I for some pages I would like people to pay attention to normal site/features at first, and then notifications later when then are used to the site.
EDIT: If a node could show up after xx seconds after people reads a node that would also be a fantastic and probably easier.

There's currently no plans to expand the available criteria. Reason being the criteria is handled by default helpers - the same ones used by the notices feature.

I thougth maybe it could be handled by the fade-in criteria? Hmm, no success here yet. Better upgrade to 1.1a
By not expanding criteria I was referring to "notifications shown after people have visited a specific node 10 times/logged in 10 times".
I may be able to do the notification appearing after x seconds.
Just to confirm, though, because your post is ambiguous.
Are you wanting the notification to appear X seconds after visiting a page?
A delayed notification?
