Well... here it is xD unit frames go~ looks kinda odd to me still :P

There is a border though behind the UF's, the shadowy border at least as seen in Image2 when I have threat. Also, 3rd Image shows party frames. And ops, apparently something happened to my threat~ Dps bars z.z gotta look at it.

Actually, depending on the pixel font, (i am using one that has lower and uppercase letters) quest text is fine with one. Chat does look awful, and ya, I can't seem to use pixel font well in a scrolling battle text.
--Example of my quest text is in image3 below.

I am using a mixture of Swfit and Supernat1001 for my fonts, swfit for UnitFrames, and data text, and supernat for like quest text, my exp bar minimap and some other things. Pixel fonts have a lot of varieties and uses
