Can we make the Search and My Learning more prominent using VBS?

Summary:

Is it possible to make the "search" and the "My Learning" in the lower left more visible through VBS? The little yellow bar is almost not visible. (e.g., add a border or color??) Or move these options up to the top where it's even more visible?

We are trying to make it as clear as possible and less confusing to the learner of which page they are on. Is there a way to customize this? Has anyone else been able to do this? Show me what ya got! :D
