+ | A few things that still bother me about it: | ||
+ | * The avatar feels natural in the right top, but leaves a lot of empty space on its left | ||
+ | * Suggestion: move the " | ||
+ | * Nice idea, I'll try that and update the mockup accordingly. --- // | ||
+ | * The userlist-add and -remove buttons could maybe just be small " | ||
+ | * The edit-icons for the username and realname should be sitting on gtk-buttons | ||

+ | Responding to a few ideas/ | ||

+ | Open Issues: | ||
+ | * Dropped the username-changing (do we really want people to do that?) --- // | ||
+ | * Label on top of a GtkEntry: inconsistent with other settings-dialogs (labels are always on the left) --- // | ||
