Looks nice! Except you're missing the 's' at the end of Blood Elves, and that would drive me nuts.

I think that's a job very well done Spikemay! Well done Maybe Blood Elven?

Insy bitsy teeny weeny adjustments would be IMO:
Change appearance of the Co - ords; size and border or even position by getting Fubar LocationFu plugin for Fubar
Remove chat buttons on the side of the chat window
If you do change the co ords postion move the mini map buttons to the bottom half of the mini map border to fill in the blank space at the bottom

Looks great ( says the Undead obsessed freak) !
Over and out

Looks nice. Only concern I have is (that hasn't been posted about yet) is the unit frames. You should invest in some nice unit frames to go with the theme of the ui

hui looks great i'll take one

but where is the factionbar ? and those Minimap buttons, i dont think i like them on the minimap 'cause its overlapping the art - also i dont like this thin white border around the Zonename it looks odd (it looks more like a windows image button).

the sperator line (between actionbar section and minimap section) in contrast to the left sperator line (between chat and actionbar section) looks wierd because its full 3d (shadowpart and highlightpart) and the left sperator are only increasing the 3d-height of the panel.

also the most-bottom decoration of the panels (actionbar and minimap section) are straighttrough ignoring the beveled effect

hope you could read my bad english ^^

Man, That Looks sweet. Once finished I might toly give that a try.
I noticed you have atlas though. You should toly get Cartographer. With all the fubar plug-ins, cartographer is amazing. Atlas (as far as I know) doesn't do that.

Also the Instance maps and settings are way more accessible.

Grab FuBar and your Ace mods will attach to FuBar instead of the minimap.

:)

thanx for comments guys just a few things..

1. i used many types of unit frames, some looked cool but suffered in function the simplicity and coolness of the default one drew me back am working on changing the colour of the health and mana bars but i think the default frame looks nice

2. not alot of people like titan.. i don't know why.. for me fubar is just bad its very unstable and crashes alot.. titan uses hardly any resources for me and has the exact plugins i require :P

3. i am thinking of doing a full racial theme set yes

4. i do use Cartographer but for instances it really messes up the map textures.. therefore i use atlas for instance maps

thanx for ur feedback guys

You must have been using a old version of FuBar. Try it out again. Get the newest one, and plugins from http://files.wowace.com

Aye. I used titan for a long time to cause it used less memory (still does that i think though) but titan caused me to lagg alot in comparison which was alot worse in comparison since im in a raiding guild nearly at BT.

Fubar is alot more stable and uses just the amount of memory according to how many additions there is on the bar itself which can vary alot (which is why there is a bit of memory usage for me)

Also titan has been out of date for well over a year now. Fubar is continually updated and as mentioned (i think) an ace mod which is usually a mark of quality for mods

No, FuBar uses less memory than titan.

This is not completely correct, sorry.

FuBar is using Ace2 which mean it shares libraries with other Ace2 mods which in turn reduce the overall memory usage if you have plenty of those Ace2 mods (which I don't know if it is the case for this UI). If you compare a standalone FuBar install with Titan I am not sure you'll see much of a difference, probably even the contrary. But anyway this would be missing the point of Ace2 altogether. So your claim is to be taken with caution

I don't use embedded libraries.

AddOnUsage and bongos_stats says fubar uses less.

That has nothing to do with anything and should not change the overall memory usage anyway.

Do you include all the Ace library mods in the total for FuBar? Because you should since FuBar would be pretty useless without them

Not all my ace libraries becuase FuBar doesn't use all of them.

And it still sued less memory.

All in all Fubar is better than titan. <<<< IMO

Way to get off topic guys. How about you take it back on topic for the author's sake, hmmm?
