The only thing I really like about pixel fonts, is that they work with MONOCHROME OUTLINE. Which simply looks far better than the blurry font flags of non pixel fonts.


Btw, I just added Totem icons (and level display, again) to dNameplates.


Might add a 1px border to the icons, too.

I like the totem icon idea, I might borrow it. Just finished my broker bar and objectives tracker. Nothing wild about those.

There are a few things left on my to-do list like modules for loot windows, Blizzard's PowerAuras and tooltips as well as some minor issues with existing modules that I put on the backburner. I'm also weighing up if I can get rid of Skinner with a reasonable amount of work. After that I'll polish some standard textures and debug extensively. So it's gonna take some more time.

Not sure if it's worth getting rid of Skinner. While it's doable, it limits the amount you can skin when it comes to users installing their favorite addons. With Skinner you can just copy the AddonSkins file to SkinMe. Very convenient.

The icons are screaming for a pixel border.

Pixels, pixels everywhere, and not a one to eat.

New and improved chat window:



I suggest clicking on it for pixel perfection. The panel on the left (the rectangle with the arrow pointing to the right) of the chat box will hide or show everything related to the chat frame and the exp/rep bar with the click of the panel. Also, the panel is shown on mouseover.

My friend re-subbed my wow account and forced me to download the game at gunpoint. So I'm back for a month! Maybe more if something keeps me attached.

Care UI was released about a week ago but I know that it's going to break in 4.1 because a couple of people informed me it breaks on the PTR so I'll probably have to update it a bit and it still needs quite a bit of tuning.

Here's a couple of images attached anyway.
PS How do you get a 1pixel border on the icons of Forte_Cooldown?

Try CoolLine instead.

Small and lightweight addon which is easy to tweak.

@carebear, Start posting some actual in raid combat screenshots or so.

I always love your UI, but idling is just idling you know. It get's trickier to get a clean UI in a raid, bashing omnitron while healing for example.

I want to see raidframe, position and boss timerzzzzzzzz.

Weakling. I would have taken the money and bought Dragon Age II instead.

</offtopic>

You're using an awful lot of action buttons for such a minimal UI. Not a big fan of the coolline either.

Quite sure the 2 top actionbars are just there for people who need it or on mouseover.

I will do eventually, but I'm not going to be raiding at all so it will probably just be a BG shot to show it instead. There will be some up soon hopefully.

He said he missed me and that I was going to have to update the UI for patch 4.1 because he tested it on the PTR and it broke. So he paid for my wow sub so that I would be able to update the UI so I don't really mind ^_^

Going to be bashing away on C9 later this evening though, managed to buy a korean account for £8 so it should be fun! (8v8 death match) it's all korean and a korean only game but there's loads of europe and US players on one particular server.

Very true, there's a total of 5 actionbars, 3 in the middle as you can see there and then a further two on the right hand side. They're all toggled off with the in-game show actionbar stuff. rActionBarStyler is just <3

What do you think of my layout?

I'm designing a new interface, and I'm looking for some C&C on it. I threw this together in photoshop, so try and picture it without all the white backgrounds and stuff.

Also, i just grabbed a random pic from google images for the background so you can see where everything is in relation to the play screen.

Let me know what you think!

I think it looks great, I like the aura placement. I could see myself using it.

What font? Looks like ExpressFreeway but I think it's a bit thicker...not sure.

Added an AltPowerBar element to my layout.
