hidden icons
 
I have some hidden Icons after I installed carbonite (which I love) the top right of my screen is hidden under my action bars. Please help. Here is a link to it (I hope I have never tried to send a photo like this let me know if the link works)

You play on a really small screen.
You could try to scale your complete UI.
The option for this is in your graphics setting.

Or you can use an action bar replacement like Bartender
where you can scale and/or move only certain elements of your ui.

I play on a 19" screen its square and not widescreen but it is still a 19" monitor. So I dont think its my monitor

Bartender allows you to actually move all those action bars around. Also, like Rilgamon suggested, try going into your video settings menu, and enabling UI scaling, set it to something lower than it currently is.

Chibi is quite correct. Just about any action bar mod you install will require extensive repositioning and scaling, simply because the addon doesn't "know" how you want your bars set up. And most if not all barmods have rescaling options built in to their gui to simplify things as much as possible. With that being said, you will probably need to go into WoW's own scaling options as well. Check the "Use UI scale" box and set the slider to whatever suits your preference. This will make your screen a lot less cluttered and make you feel like you've got a whole lot more room to actually play the game on your screen.

One more thing, if you decide to stick with the default action bars, the ui scaling options will reduce the size of the bars, therefore getting them more out of the way than they currently are.

You can move the "icons" from Carbonite's minimap button holder by hovering over the "C" button there, just move them. Another idea for you is to utilize the UI scale slider and move it down a bit ;)

It's your system resolution settings, not the size of your monitor. If you have a low resolution setting on a 42" it would still show as your screenshot. I'd look at the previous suggestions of the UI scale and also what do you have the game resolution set at (I believe the same spot as the UI scale setting).
