Would you mind if I copy your layout for my own personal UI? Really like it and have pretty much put it together the way I want but would like your permission to use it. (not releasing, I'm kinda like you in the regard to releasing compilations)

WTB your experience bar... I can't find ANY good ones lately. The ones I have in mind are stuck to the minimap and the other just doesn't work properly z.z

Also if you don't like the shadow in your chat,

Code:

ChatFrame1:SetShadowColor(0, 0, 0, 0) -- 4th arg is alpha
ChatFrame1:SetShadowOffset(0, 0) -- x, y
-- [[ ChatFrame1:SetSpacing(3) (optional, changes the vertical spacing on your lines) ]]

Anywhere in any LUA of any addon (at top) to remove the 'shadow' of your chat frames. Just change the Frame# for w.e chat window. (2 would be combat log)

If you're talking to me, go for it. Just don't go uploading it because I would to do that myself once I can ;D

EDIT: Also, while I am at it, anyone happen to know a minimap mod similar to BasicMinimap, but allows me to change the size? Nothing fancy :3
EDIT2: Thanks to Nib, and his awesomeness, He gave me a code for aggroing border colors ONLY if certain conditions were met: If you have a Pet out, in a party or raid, it will show the colors, but if in a BG or Solo, it won't. Thank you nib! And code for KGPanels has been updated in my sig if anyone is interested.

Also, new pic of said color borders ;D

Ya, sorry about that. Should of specified who. No plans on releasing it. I still use an old 4:3 ratio monitor so I tend to put together my own UIs. Thanks!

Its stExperience bar that I've fiddled with code to make class-colored (forefront and bg textures) and changed the anchoring so I can move it anywhere~

Its looking great just one thing that CoolLine feals abit redundant to me as you alredy have 2 action bars showing next your frame. Unless your filtering it for specific CDs. If its not needed then you can have threat meter & dps meter beneath second action bar side by side. I think just threat bar beneath in ceneter would be best though.

I was thinking of getting rid of it, I don't need it seeing as I have a CD watcher on my abilites button anywhos. Thanks for the tip

Here ya go, hope it helps~

Nerielle · 04-25-11, 08:01 PM

Lily, not sure if it's been mentioned or if you were aware, but the damage meter is out by a little bit either side of the cooldown bar. I only noticed when I was looking at the texture you were using there

Kendian · 04-25-11, 10:06 PM

ANd from that earlier post, came this, lol. I'm happier with this, I think. As always, C&C and suggestions are welcome~

Don't see it often!

Looks awesome and easy to play with.

Spent some time doing cleaning up the auction frame. Button highlight colour based on class, etc.

@Hal: Can't wait to DL the new version.

@Ruben: Your texture is sometimes a little to hard to work with :P It's dark and sometimes doesn't work well unless with light colors and certain texts/borders/lightings. I have loved the texture for a long time but was unable to ever use it properly till now.

@Ken: I personally liked the other one more, but that's just me

and thank you for the upload.

Seriously? Use a glossy texture with no backdrop and set it to fill on loss. D'oh.

The frames themselves look good, the rounded edges are a nice touch but the huge numbers inside the frame kind of ruin it.

Reminds me of one of Duke's older UIs.

I'm fairly certain he's asking how to make it in Photoshop in which case I can't exactly tell you. I used a a lot of layers involving gradients and masking as well as different brushes. Using actually good fonts does make a difference. The percentages use Lucidia and everything else is Trajan. Also I'm not exactly sure the hp/mp percentages inside would look better any other way. Maybe I can tone down the two font sizes a notch or two but I would prefer for them to be quite a bit larger than their hp/mp value counterparts (the numbers below the frames).

My current Edit for 4.1

To Do:
Rewrite Actionbar Code (hide and show bars etc.)
Delete Low Resolution and High Resolution. Only 1 Resolution :S
Unitframes
Create AddOn Control Panel
Raid Layout
