Show Avatars In Addition to # of Members
planned

Currently, Solutions in Home show the number of Apps and Members in each Solution.
It'd be more helpful (and more in-keeping with the millennial design vibes) to replace "8 Members" with small avatars of the first 3 members followed by "+ 5 Members"
Examples of this "in the wild" include (1) how Asana handles Project permissions and (2) how Canny handles upvote tracking.
Note: If an area is shared with a Team, the Team's icon/image could be used in lieu of individual images.

Hey Layla at ProcessDriven, thank you for your feedback on this ! Love it !
After doing a competitor research I've created couple quick UI drafts which I also shared for internal team discussion. We would really love to hear your thoughts on those.
The "millenial design vibes" that you mentioned also inspired this additional approach that I'm sending as well, which allows us to have even more avatars there - and even bigger ones. In our design process we always try to look at things from different angles and get feedback on as many different UI options as we can.

Stoyan Daskaloff • Design Lead @ SmartSuite: The former was exactly what I was picturing!
The latter is nice too! In my opinion, I'd actually prefer the second option but only if the "10 Apps + 1200 Records" was above the "Last Accessed" instead of below the Solution title so that the overall row height wasn't so much taller.

Layla at ProcessDriven: Interesting. Let's continue this, I hope you're enjoying it as much as I do :)
What are your thoughts on the following two versions, which one would you prefer ? Of course, this it strictly individual since for organisation that have 20-30 solutions the row option might not be that suitable and in the same time for small teams with 4-5 solutions this might be the preferred UI.
Curious to hear back from you.

Stoyan Daskaloff • Design Lead @ SmartSuite: This is great! I prefer the density of the columns, still, but I like the row height of the second option now -- particularly if it still showed more than 3 avatars.
Very cool!

Layla at ProcessDriven: Awesome, glad to hear that :)
We're definitely moving and planning to have this live in one of our next releases. We'll do some further investigations on which of the two to go with - we'll get some more feedback and will do some research about the average number of solutions our customers are using so far. This is definitely going to help us make a better and more educated decision if the row option will be a practical choice.
Thank you !

We have moved this into the Planning phase and our UI team will be working on design options this week that they will then post for your review and comment.

I second this!
