Sorry, but I prefer the other way. This is now way too confusing. If you're dead set on making it this way, can we please make it a personal preference?

@graywolf336 the idea is to prepare to when channels will have their own avatar.. so they will like pretty much as users..

I'm just not sure if we should have the new colored avatars for channels even on the small version. we could maybe have the "old way" (non-colored with just the icon) on the small version and have the colored/image avatar for channels on the big version..

I like this 🔝 I think on the large view its probably ok for avatars and/or showing this default name based image. But on small version I think we should keep the icons like they are now.

I think by changing the colors like we have we've already changed a lot this version 😁

@graywolf336 @geekgonecrazy The current version (with lock/hash inside the colored square) will need to change as soon we have images for channels, that's why I moved the icon out.

That is a design decision and @engelgabriel can explain.

There is an option to reduce the noise, move the room icon to the right

We will merge this to keep it coherent with the new mobile design. I agree that avatars should be optional, and we will implement that option later.

In these screens with lock/hash + image/avatar. That to me is a bit better 👍

Could we make it do single letter like in the screens? I think that might be difference between looking noisy and looking great like those mobile screenshots

Another option to reduce the noise is reduce the initials to one letter

[geekgonecrazy]

IMO that helps a lot.

I like this option the best then.
