Tapping on an avatar and holding would bring up this bit of UI/UX. These aren't the final buttons that'll be there, just some ideas we're throwing around. Happy with the outcome!
Would love to see how the interaction of this would work, whether it would pulse up like something similar to path. You should create an animation showing the interaction, I did earlier today with something I'm working on at the moment. http://drbl.in/dbmm
Great execution, mate. I'd like to see the circles centred on the circle, if that makes sense. So the white circle hits the centre points of all the action buttons
Hold the bowl. I had a dream last night about a UI centered around the Mass Effect speech selection, then I wake up to this? Get out of my head Charles!
This is a fantastic idea. I thought a while ago (years before app development) that something similar to the sims contextual menu would be a good idea. Here you've shown that maybe it is. But then maybe it's more suited to an iPad, where there's more screen real estate for that type of thing.
The problem I see with interface elements like these is the total reliance on the icons being 100% clear. I can assume that top is profile, left is add user and right is close. But what about users that might not been entirely comfortable with understanding icon meaning. Adding in text would help but how scalable that is with this specific interaction I'm not sure.

Cool idea. I think the white border around the blue circle is a little distracting from the actual buttons. Maybe use more of a glow?
