Frozen keeps track of Frost Nova's expected duration, instead of just its actual duration on your target/focus. This is helpful if you are AoE farming or just need to frost nova multiple targets. The bar is very customizable so that it will fit in any UI and match any other timer bar mods you may have.
FAQ:
Is there a slash command?
Options may be reached through the Interface Options screen, or by typing /frozen or /fr.
How do I move the bar?
In the Frozen config window, use the x,y sliders to control its placement on the screen. Relative point (0,0) is the center of your screen.
How do I know what it looks like?
Click the "Test" button to see the bar count down. That way you can see it's size, color, texture, and placement without having to cast Frost Nova.
Where can I find more fonts/bar textures?
For further font choices, I suggest the SharedMedia addon. Have a font you want to use that's not in there? Read the "Instructions for MyMedia.txt" file in the SharedMedia folder.
How can I give feedback?
Feel free to leave your comments/questions here, but all bug reports and feature requests need to go to my portal if you want me to remember to do them.
Can I use your code?
All use of my code separate from Frozen must be for your own personal use and may not be redistributed separate from the addon. Frozen may only be redistributed in UI packs, and any mention of the addon must point to this download page or my portal. You may use snippets of my code in addons you intend to distribute only after receiving permission, and credit must be given.

Gah - I have been playing my death knight more than my mage, so I don't have the newest rank of frost nova yet - hadn't even occured to me to add it yet. Sorry, and thank you, Codex. Frozen will be patched up tonight.

Thank you Added that line in the .lua after seeing your post. So this mod deserves an update!
Very nice addon that definitely helps with timing chain moves off of nova.
I was thinking that improved Icebarrier's nova deserves a timer as well if this addon could do that it would be awesome.
Hmm... It works okay for me. Do you get the same behavior with Frozen being the only addon enabled? Let me also check into it myself to see if I didn't mess something else up that I'm not noticing.

Heh this looks like an awesome idea! When AoE grinding, I always find my self wondering whether or not I have the time to take those few extra steps to get a full second Blizzard in.
Also very useful in Battlegrounds, when I'm calculating how many Frostbolts I can get in before the Nova'ed warrior/rogue/palladin/druid charges me =P (Then of course I Blink away and pwn that melee newb =D)
Havn't tried it yet, though I will, once I play on the weekend. Thanks alot OP.
