Votes at time of UserVoice import: 3
As written on Slack, I have mixed feelings about the position of the user down in the left corner? On one hand, that makes things clean and stowed away. On the other hand, users might feel a little stowed away? This feeling may be even stronger once they see the browser links to the entries running across their picture and info.
In mobile view the user link is right under the menue, but the image gives much weight to the user info and weakens the clean look. So I am wondering if we or our users really need our pictures there or if it would be possible to go back to the „old" icon instead and extend the main nav with the user info.
Also, maybe there would not be any need for the arrow, if we separate the log-out to a different icon. Clicking on the user could bring me to the user details page instantly. And for longer user names, there would be more space availabe. (Btw long user names: I think it would great if Craft would print the complete last name and swap first names with intial of irst name, when the name runs too long.)
Thanks for consideration!
