One last thing though, would it be possible to emulate the object selection circle?

Basically, I want a texture to be displayed at the feet of the character, but to also scale with camera angle, similar to the object selection circle.
I was like that once.

I would look at the code then compare the functions to what wowwiki says it does. It does make sense after a while but it took me some time to get to grips with it.

Even now I have wowwiki bookmarked to call on to grab those functions out. And the book mentioned has a companion website which I frequent alot too. Which looking at the links given already is one of the wow api links.

Start off with something simple and let it grow.

Once you have a basic addon project set up that runs with minimal structure you can reuse it for your next projects tweaking it to suit its needs.
