Newb interface question

Hey all, i was just curious if anyone could enlighten me on how to adjust the size of buttons, and bags in blizzards standard interface or to point me in the direction of mods that can accomplish this. Also is there a way to move and resize the text box? Thanks a bunch for your help it's much appreciated.

If you want to stick to the default interface, you could hit Escape, go into Video options, check off "Use UI Scale" and move the slider to the right, but that would increase the size of everything in your UI (minimap, character frame, questlog, etc).

As for the chat frame, make sure that simple chat is not selected in Interface Options. Then right-click on the tab on your chat frame, unlock it, and you can drag and resize it. You can also change the font size, but that is also something that would increase with UI scale, if you do the above step.

Be nice now. It's easy to forget, but we were all newbies once.

1) Never a stupid question if you learned something.
2) Tons to choose from. Depends on what you like, and what screen resolution you use. I'd shamelessly plug my compilation, but I'm just finishing testing before I upload tonight (I was without a gamecard during patch).
