Implemented Online Status Indicator / move outside of Avatar-image

[erich37]

The position of the "green dot" inside the Avatar is not great, as it destroys the appearance of the Avatar-image.
Depending on the Avatar-image, the "Online Status Indicator" is also hardly visible.

The "Online Status Indicator" should be positioned somewhere outside of the Avatar-image.

An excellent suggestion, Erich. Some members are very sensitive about any changes to their images.

If it was changing the image, that'd be a relevant argument - but it's not. It's overlapping the image.

I think people should now respect the decision that has been made by the developers and appreciate the fact that it has changed to what it has done based on feedback. Further suggestions can be implemented to your own tastes using the tools provided. Style Properties, custom CSS, template edits etc.

I stand corrected.

Interesting how your image looks fine with the Online Indicator in the current position. I suppose if everyone were to put a white border on their avatar that would solve the problem.

That was just luck. Would you like me to change it so the green is covering part of it? I'm more than happy to do so, since I don't feel the need to complain about every single thing that gets added and appreciate the time and effort the developers put into the software for us to use.

@Brogan This thread serves perfectly as an example for the 'bike shed' issue you posted about the other day.

I think it looks great.

I was going to move the dot if it remained but I'll leave it as it is now.

Edit: Indeed @Kevin.

Good god chris. That would entail adjusting the top: right: / top: left: values. How could you possibly ask members to make such time consuming changes that will take the best part of a day to implement.

Strange, when I first noticed the change I didn't like it, but now I really like it :/.

I think people actually do respect the decision made by the developers.

are you saying that "further suggestions" are not allowed ?

Nobody is complaining!
It is just "customer feedback" in order to improve a product.



Try to think differently, think out of the box !

Can't you just accept that it's been changed based upon feedback and move on to the next thing you hate?

I do, regularly, but I also know when to stop sounding like a broken record.

This suggestion is implemented. Further suggestions would require a new thread.

I do not "hate" anything in XenForo, in fact I love it.

I "love" XenForo , which is the reason I am taking the time to write some "suggestions".

That's great and all, but there is such a thing as overdoing it.

This suggestion has been discussed to death. If you have specific feedback and suggestions related to the new implementation, please create a thread for the new suggestion.
