Mechrior, at the risk of having my head handed to me I want to say I really like the artwork in your UI. Did you custom make that or have I missed those panels somewhere?

They are a heavily edited version of LocoTech UI that I found while pottering about looking for a mazzle UI replacement when it died! I'm still in the process of makign it look the way I want and I have edited quite alot of the UI in itself including tweaking some of the textures for my own usage.
Props go to Warlocomotif for his base conceptwhich inspired me to attack it with photoshop and make it my own :P

Trying to open up some screen space, so here's a before and after. Suggestions, please, on which/what/where

Its one of the reasons I took it and also because its not one of the SUPER MINIMALIST UI's I see so many of today..... I like to have something pretty to look at!

Ok, so i managed to get Chicchai to play nice with Litepanels :P
Took me a while to get it right but heres some raid shots whowing the modified layout:

I have been looking at changing the alpha of the Stuf/VuhDo/recTimers so that it isnt so brutal...
C&C welcome

I even had the damage meters on top of the minimap as well. Weird.

I like them, however if I were you I'd switch the positions of the player and target frames around. I also find the raid frames a bit too big. But that's coming from a DPSer with no healing capabilities whatsoever

@ Kendian

I like the changes. One suggestion I have to save more screen space is to make the bottom infobar transparent, and move the plugins to the sides. Then lower your action bars/unitframes to fill the space. Also, your chatbar addon might need to be moved somewhere else, instead of sticking it there in the open. Prior to the 3.3.5 breaking of the addon, I had mine set to transparent unless you mouseover it. You can also hotkey different chat channels, which makes things much easier, imo.

@Canities

I love the artwork. I might have to do something like that with my own UI...

Also, an addon used to hide those "Ability not ready yet" messages would be a nice addition. The unit frames area seems a bit cramped as well.

Actually, I was referring to the fact that your buff bars have one texture, your DBM timers have another and your health/power/boss health (DBM again) bars were yet another. It definitely is something that can wait though.

I took alot of what people said and have made some large changes...... still playing with them at the moment but will upload another ss soon to show the difference"

Kendian · 06-28-10, 01:05 AM

Latest look. I think I'm almost satisfied with this (knocks on wood). Comments, criticism, and suggestions, please~

haylie · 06-28-10, 01:47 AM

This is where I ended up:

I like it, however I liked my previous version better so I'll be reverting back to that one.

Aftermathhqt · 06-28-10, 08:19 AM

Is ouf coding the only way to get those cool ass borders?

Has anyone figured it out for stuf/kgpanels users yet? I cannot get lua down for some reason. It just wasnt in the cards. lol..

Anyway, game looks great!!..Nice work.

Wella · 06-28-10, 09:09 AM

Couldn't you get the texture from somewhere and just use KgPanels with it?

not having your action buttons filled is a big eyesore, id say make the top 2 have a "on hover"

This is just on my new mage...only level 13 so there are no buttons..

As far as the hover only. I might look into that.
