Hi!

Just tried out another type of BBLog menu because the current menu is very big and messed up.
My test goes back to BBLog v1 with vertical menu.

Mouseover the BBLog icon in top-left of the page opens the menu.

I like the menu, just wondering: how does it look when there are many plugins?

I don't like the icon, I prefer the current one.

Same but with scrollbars to scrolldown the menu, as in the comcenter when you have to many friends :)
Looks awesome!
Yes, the dropdown menu looks awesome. Nevertheless, the icon doesn't fit in.

Ok, maybe someone have a concept/design for the icon in the top left?
Should be not that big (max 50x50) and it should be clearly visible and simple.

Maybe just the icon you have, only without all the blurry stuff. So just the letters with a transparent background?

Looks good to me.

I do have one suggestion, though. I think it'd be kind of neat if you can have a ~15px area on the left side of the site (top to bottom), and when you hover it with the cursor, the menu floats out.

To indicate that the menu is there, you could have some orange (BBLog colour) box-shadow, or have the menu point out of the ~15px area.

I guess this might cause problems on smaller screens, so an option to turn it off and just use an icon would be good as well.

So, my final solution, looks good on all battlelog sections.
I think the left-side fullheight mouseover area is more annoying than helpful especially on smaller screens.
On some pages it does work well but on battlelog i don't think so.

That icon looks great, I only think that you should've rotate it the other direction.
