First thing you need to know is that this is NOT a UI Compilation, it is simply a collection of artwork I made which you can use as a backdrop for your own UI design. Because this is not a compilation, you will need a small amount of experience using MODs in order to arrange and modify the various elements of your interface to get it to your own liking/arrangement.
TO USE MY ARTWORK YOU MUST INSTALL:
ElectrofluxTextronator or BTex
Either one of these MODs will place artwork on the bottom of your screen. Yes, there are other MODs which do that too, but these are the 2 most popular, so I have correctly sized, split and tested my art for these add-ons only.
REFER TO THE ADDON'S INSTALL FILES TO USE MY ARTWORK WITH IT
HOPE YOU LIKE THE ARTWORK!!
DarkUI - My First UI, made to be neutral in color as to not distract from the game area, as well as functional and clean looking. (256px High)
NexusUI - Based on the Nexus Instance, its a taller background with plenty of space for buttons, 2 chat windows and has an area in the center to place a round minimap. (512px High)
ShadowFangUI - A very slim but stylish background, made for the "minimalist" who just needs somewhere for their buttons, chat and meters. (256px High)
ZukDrakUI - A more elaborate, detailed UI based off the Zul'Drak Zone in Northrend. It has lots of room for buttons, chat, meters, ect which can be arranged many different ways. (256px High)
I can be contacted in-game through World of Warcraft: Shaylea - Gnome Warlock, on the Whisperwind Realm
Im at work and I dont know the exact string of commands for TE, it is something like you put /et art texture NexusUI that will change it. For the nexus one, you will also have to adjust the height (it will look squashed) because its higher then the default setting. That command is something like /et texture height 512 ..
But if you type /et it should provide you with help as well in what the exact command is. Just follow along in there and you should get it, its really not difficult, and the mod has fairly clear instructions included in it.
As for the texture being over the buttons and hiding them, that i dont know how to fix, thats not a texture issue, and doesnt have anything to do with my release. ET is set to put the textures on the "background" layer of the interface. Ive never had to change that setting, or ran into your issue with it, so check within ET to see if it has a layer option that might be set to something other then "Background".. if it is set ok, then i would be looking at the settings of your action bar mods, maybe they are set to a layer behind the background which is why they are being covered.
Again, I cant offer any more help then that for you. My release is simply "textures" or "Artwork" to use with the mod, I did not have any part in writting any mod itself, so any problems or issues with the way they function need to be directed towards the mod's creator.
I'm quite fresh on these sorts of things but..
how do i change the already set texture (default tree with the ElectrofluxTextronator addon) to any of the NexusUI?
Do i type /et art texture NexusUI? and btw, the texture is covering my actionbar and all of the other bars aswell.

I'm sorry but there's no way I could support and provide setup instructions for every mod I use.. you will need to sit with the mods yourself and play with the settings, and/or ask the mod author's for help.
I can provide you a list of addons I currently use however, they are listed below, but again, I cannot provide support for any of them.

Settings was exactly like yours, i removed BTex that i used and installed
ElectrofluxTextronator, now it works perfectly. I have no idea why.
Works now tho, thanks for the help!
Originally posted by Poof Ive set the exact setting you mentioned, but still the same problem.
Here is a screenshot. I dont get it, maybe you do.
Hmm, looks almost there. Are you using BTex or Electroflux?
Here is a shot of my Settings
As you can see the slider is ALL the way to the left, the only thing i can think of, is that if your slider looks like its to the left, but its not quite all the way (maybe off just a tad?)

Edt: For me the artwork goes outside the monitor, aka art is to wide, i have a widescreen monitor, but neither i set resolution it looks the same, what a i doing wrong?
Sems like unless i get a monitor with higher than 1680x1050 this art wont work for me.
1680x1050 is what I run and the artwork goes right to the sides as it should be so i'm sure we can get it working for you.
I checked my settings in WOW, and the one thing I do have, is in the Video Options, I have my UI scaling CHECKED and the slider bar underneath is all the way to the left (Smallest). I moved it to the right, and the textures got larger and didn't fit, so I think this may be what your talking about and fix the scaling for you.
