I like the addition of achievements but I don't like the placement of the badges in the topics on the avatars. They are designed well but I'm not sure they are needed in some cases (on a busy site for instance, it would get annoying). For many years I requested the online status to show next to username or on the photos as I have it as have always had to use a mod to achieve that, yet now it's deemed fine to have these big bulky icons which I'd say takes eyes away from the content a fair bit more than an online status ever did.

Currently you've got these icons in topics, hovercard, profile and dropdown menu. I think it would be better all round if they didn't appear in topics as well the rest or at least have that option. I also think the original central placement of the new member / moderator icon on profile photos in topics was better than it is now at opposite ends. I'm guessing these are hard to alter too.

Please, can you tell me which mod are you using for that ?
Thankyou,

Yeah I’m not a fan of these icons over the profile pictures, I get I’m not the most handsome man out there, but I work with what I have, covering me up with an icon gives me insecurities about that side of my face.

The above might not be totally serious, but I can confirm I’m not a fan. If we are going down that route of covering our pretty faces, an online indicator would be more useful than displaying whatever achievement I’m up to.

@marklcfc Maybe the mod does the same thing, but in 4.6.X I've modified the theme template in order to display online status in users posts (template forums/front/topics/postContainer ) and it works quite well. I think the same thing could be done in 4.5.X knowing the information is already available too.
