What is an Avatar ?
The idea is to have a separate userpics system for a few reasons:
- Photos is an optional module, and we need core functionality for small userpics.
- Avatar may be a sign, picture, photo, small logo, etc. So, creating avatars for "photos" didn't sound natural.
- There was a need for seamless step for userpic creation after Join, preferably with cropping tool. Photos upload page didn't really work well, especially since it's becoming more and more sophisticated (albums, multi-file upload, etc.)
Avatars can be uploaded, cropped and chosen from available site-avatars (we added a nice selection of those).
So, say hello to Avatars. They can be found in "Account > Avatar" tab.
2. Floating member menu. Yes, it was too tall. We changed that. But there's a lot more to talk about. Member menu should work as the main communication "hub" and we'll be focusing on making it better. Now it's mainly "links", but it's supposed to be a messenger holder, notifications tracker, status updater, etc. It's getting there. It may as well double as a browser toolbar in future..
