Advanced Members LaFleur Posted March 31, 2020 Advanced Members Share Posted March 31, 2020 Hello. xat would like to know your opinion regarding the newly added homepage icon on html5 (available on version march 30, 2020). It currently looks as follows: Compared to Flash, there's no background on the icon. Questions to you are: Should the icon be smaller/bigger? Should there be a background button (as Flash)? If yes to background, should the background color match the chat button colors? Should the icon be hidden by default? Maybe it should appear upon hover? Anything else you can think of? Thank you, we're looking forward to your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteers Cupim Posted March 31, 2020 Volunteers Share Posted March 31, 2020 I think it should be smaller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bot Service Providers Nezhit Posted March 31, 2020 Bot Service Providers Share Posted March 31, 2020 1. I agree with Cupim, it should be smaller; 2. Since its a "redesign" I think it would be better on the left side of the nick, its better because when nicks are too big people cant see the homepage. This will also make the design clean and user friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Danny Posted March 31, 2020 Advanced Members Share Posted March 31, 2020 If I have input I would suggest putting it on the chat next to "sign in" and "sign out" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributors Sergio Posted March 31, 2020 Contributors Share Posted March 31, 2020 If the icon itself appears upon hover, then I'd just line it up with the current nickname (it seems to be slightly displaced). Since it won't be on the screen if this gets added, then I don't think it's needed to change the size of the icon. In case you decide not to showing it upon hover, it should be definitely be smaller.

Advanced Members Mino1 Posted March 31, 2020 Advanced Members Share Posted March 31, 2020 I like the homepage, a little bit smaller would be good. I agree with cupim's proposal. To easter an easter bunny looks out. Joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another idea could be to have a few different ways for the users to choose which layout they want with a "screenshot" example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Stif Posted March 31, 2020 Moderators Share Posted March 31, 2020 Smaller like @Cupim's example. I think that having it on the right side is still better. Having it right after the pawn would be weird. As a redesign, it seems better without the background button. I think the hidden and hovering or not hidden could be an user choice.

Advanced Members Pedro Posted March 31, 2020 Advanced Members Share Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Should there be a background button (as Flash)? Yes, because it's easily to users know that is a button. If yes to background, should the background color match the chat button colors? yes, exactly to fit with the chat, it could be NICE. Should the icon be hidden by default? Maybe it should appear upon hover? nah, it should show up always. should it be smaller? yes it should @Cupim, also a url closer to the HOMEPAGE like @Leandro said. it could to prevent scammers/third urls malicious.

Members Temo Posted April 1, 2020 Members Share Posted April 1, 2020 I think if it was a little smaller it would look perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Members Zoomey Posted April 3, 2020 Advanced Members Share Posted April 3, 2020 The design for it is fine imo. I think the only changes it really needs is as Cupim said, make it smaller and as Danny said, move the link closer to the home icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Featured Comment LaFleur Posted April 9, 2020 Author Advanced Members Featured Comment Share Posted April 9, 2020 Consensus is: Keep homepage style as is but reduce its size. Reduce the gap between the homepage icon and tooltip. Thanks for the feedback! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
