  We can't do only a shadow for the avatar since it gives a shadow to the outline of the icon and not the shader effect, which looks bad. If we add a shadow behind the avatar (which I would be open to), the circle background I've added is mandatory.
  
  For the buttons, it's a bit better, but I don't think //just// shadows behind the current icons will be enough:

  Shadows behind the new circle-background icons do work pretty well though, and improve the contrast to good levels.:

  Maybe that reveals that the icons' translucent background should be less translucent, or even opaque, and then we wouldn't need a shadow for them.
