I would assume it takes some getting used to the textures, but should be doable. It's just getting the measurements right.

Here have a look : This is the default tooltip http://wowprogramming.com/BlizzArt/I...tip-Border.png it is replaceable, you just make a new PNG (or TGA, png might be easier though) and convert it to BLP. Load up the game (very important) and see what it looks like.

I don't remember where I found it, but here is the border texture from your first screenshot; it's been laying around on my hard drive for years. Remove the .txt extension; the forums aren't configured to allow .tga files for some reason.

Offtopic: Wow, that texture is old. I remember seeing it on the old discordmods.com (melli is the statusbar texture used in conjuction with the border) but I forgot what the UI was called.

On topic: how did you name your texture physically (what is the full path relative to the wow directory?) and how are you importing it into kgpanels?
