When you click through to a badge it leaves the card up during the transition. It should hide it early. (Firefox Linux)

Discord does an interesting thing for their default user card banner. They use the average flat color from the userās avatar.
Example:
Here is my example of this:
FYI similar is done in Discourse: in Topic List Previews, although itās using āDominant Colourā, not āaverageā
I suspect Dominant Colour will give better results.
Is this bug being addressed as part of this redesign?
It is a bit upstream from the User Card I know, but causes a significant problem on the User Cards when they clash with Watched Words.
Just to close the loop Nathan:
This is added in the new update:
Add google maps link via site setting to user location
Would be awesome to also have support for OpenStreetMap.
This is added now You can now decide on using either Google Maps or OpenStreetMap in the settings
I think itās a good redesign overall, but I think itās important to have badge labels. Being able to distinguish between badges with the same icon at a glance is really important for a quick preview like this. For example, without the label, you canāt tell if this icon:
is a Famous Link, Great Reply, or Great Topic (as theyāre configured on our site, YMMV). Itās even worse for the Getting Started category of badges- there are 16 badges that share the exact same icon there, with vastly different implications. Itās important for me as a moderator to be able to see when someone has a badge for reading the guidelines, for instance, but with this new design, that badge looks the same as 15 other highly different badges (including things like First Onebox and New User of the Month)
Please make it optional when you guys add this new user card to the discourse. The old one is much better than this new one and not to say that it adds a weird background color to the card which looks awful. and it does not show anything on the user card no info there.
Overall I donāt like it so would ask you please donāt force this on the discourse when you guys add this to the discourse.
Weād love to know what you like about the old design!
Could you expound on this? I see information when I click on your card and mine as well.
New one
Are you using this on your own forum?
That looks like itās my theme based on the transparency. Weāve been talking for a while now with all of the issues you have had and Iām not sure how much longer I can help unfortunately because the issues arenāt in the actual theme, rather incompatibilities I canāt seem to find.
Any errors in your console?
I was thinking this could be a theme compatibility issue.
nope.
btw, I would like to put my opinion the background color looks unpleasant when it picks the same color as the profile image. it would be better if you put a default background image or something rather than a profile color on the background. and the background should be blurred as this
personally, i really like it. this should be on a site level setting because i see people donāt really like it, but i think itās great
working fine for me:
This has been low-key bugging me, so after some looking, I found
⦠which I think does a much better job for this purpose than taking the average. Examples from peopleās avatars in this thread:
Code here: color-finder/colorfinder-1.1.js at master Ā· pieroxy/color-finder Ā· GitHub
This is my intent to eventually switch to this sort of pattern. The issue at hand though is that due to images being hosted on a CDN, this sort of thing doesnt work.
NOTE: Due to restrictions to the canvas object, this works only if the image comes from your own domain.
We have something that does this for images in our rails backend, but I am not able to access it via theme component. Since this is just an experiment for now I think Iāll hold off on this until it is easier to do.
