Regarding errors: what kind of errors? Is WoW throwing an error or is it Windows? I normally unpack zip files with a program like 7Zip into a temporary folder (usually my Desktop), open the folder up to make sure I don't have "folder within a folder" syndrome and I also check for any "funny" files that can hide Trojans, keyloggers and other nasties. Your folder structure should look this:
\Interface\AddOns\
AddOn1
- AddOn.toc
- AddOn.lua
AddOn2
- AddOn.toc
- AddOn.lua
If it looks like this:
\Interface\AddOns\
AddOn1
- AddOn
-- AddOn.toc
-- AddOn.lua
AddOn2
-AddOn2
-- AddOn.toc
-- AddOn.lua
or like this:
\Interface\AddOns\
AddOn1sr135456
- AddOn1
-- AddOn.toc
-- AddOn.lua
AddO2nrew3243
-AddOn2
-- AddOn.toc
-- AddOn.lua
Then you got folder in folder syndrome. You will need to move the actual AddOn folder out of the "container" folder.
Regarding my setup, it involved a degree of tinkering and some code changes, custom textures (backgrounds/borders) and time. The chat box is modded by my personal mod of oChat (itself a mod of idChat). The Minimap is modded and moved by a mod called Chinchilla. The UnitFrames are a custom Pitbull layout. The portraits are produced by ZuxanaModelCitizen (known as ZMobDB Advanced on this site. Chat/portrait/actionbar backgrounds are panels created by eePanels2 with custom borders from TapestryUI (I just grabbed the files from that UI pack and used em in mine). Tooltip borders are a mod of the standard Blizzard tooltip. Buttom borders are modded with cyCircled using my own version of a border again swiped from TapestryUI. Other mod used are the SL series of mods (SLCore, SLClock, SLMoney, SLGuildList, etc), fonts are either from SharedMedia (the font itself is from Caith's UI) or modded using a Fonts folder override.

Well the erros were odd. When i tried to extract the files i got a report error message on all of the zip files. so i had to xtract them onto my desktop cut them into my addon's folder. then after dl the zipfiles i couldn't access my prgram files on my computer. Had to re-boot extract the files onto my desk top then they wouldn't load.
Yup i had Folder in Folder syndrome. So i tool them out of the main folder and then loaded them.
had a few quick questions.
When using Pitbull, How do i change anything with it ? I can see to find the button on my mini map to adjust every thing.
WIth bongo2 The bars i dont use how do i hide them ?
I didn't have much time to play with it last night got late real fast so i will take a screen shot when it's done.
I couldn't locate mikscorllingbattletxt. but other then that i got pretty much what you listed. cant wait to see what i come out with
THank you again for your help.

THank you again Xinh
