Update to Navbar - Member Info and Avatars
Hey,
I moved the user information in the top right on the navbar to side panel and replace it with a clickable avatar image. If you have an avatar, you will see your avatar and if you don't you will see some default one (will change it to something better later).
If you have any notification (like a private message) your avatar will blink slowly to let you know. If you do not have any notifications, it will not blink.
I'm still testing it; so please let me know your thoughts.
If the blinking avatar is annoying (when you have messages unread in your inbox), please suggest something less annoying; maybe adding a color border to the image? or changing the image opacity? or maybe changing the avatar to something else like a notification looking avatar? or put some little badge overlay on the avatar image?
It's all up in the air for discussion and design changes.
Thanks.
