Slacker's UI
Hello, here is few beta screenshots from my custom UI.
Im working currently with Battleground, Arena and Raid profiles. Im also going to test this with 3D-glasses and planning to make two versions: Light and Dark. Im going to post more screenshots later! Feedback welcome. ... yeah i know, i got ****load of buttons. i like to play piano. edit: upldated some pictures |
Could you post a normal screenshot later, too, please? For me, those make it very difficult to view your UI.

Those giant "artistic" screenshots take forever to load and are basically impossible to see anything in. :(
Anyway, I'm not a fan at all. The giant black boxes covering half the screen are a giant waste of space. Way too many buttons everywhere, including right in the middle of the screen. How is it even possible to have that many abilities to use? |
Could you pretty please post "pictures" of your UI on monitors by other manufactures as well, so that I can be sure it will look great on my monitor too. In my case you would have to add 7 stars instead of one to replace the logo, I really hope this isn't too much work for you.
Edit: And please do not forget the different viewing angles. I sometimes raid while doing my yoga, so that would be important too. |

I think "you made me spit my coffee all over the monitor" would be the customary English saying. ;)

But the product you're advertising here is a WoW UI, not a monitor. If you're in advertising you should know that people want to see the product you're advertising, not a distorted sideways view of the product shrunk down to fit inside some random stock image of a random monitor with some generic gloss effect obscuring half of it and a blinding white background behind it. :rolleyes:

It seems to be a UI that favors clicking, am I correct? I don't see any keybindings, but it could be that you just hid them.
Either way, I'll judge based on my assumption being correct, in which case your action buttons are really small and waaay out of place. You shouldn't have to move your mouse that far to then have to click really accurately or you'll use the wrong ability, that's a design flaw. Also, healers will struggle a lot with this UI, because raid frames suffer from the same issue. The vital information a UI provides should be as close to the area where you spend the most time looking, in 99% of cases this is the middle of the screen where your character is, because positioning is so vital in this game. Having raid frames all the way to the left of the screen is a huge problem, especially on a widescreen monitor where you'll have to move your eyes/cursor even further to get the information you need. If it's not made for clicking, why show so many buttons in the first place? It seems like a waste of screen estate to show such an enormous amount of buttons, especially when several are of the same spell (Intervene appears 4 times in the same general area, but not all next to eachother for easy clicking either). You should provide pictures from a casters point of view aswell, to show where you've put castbars and such. Don't forget to include target castbars too. You should consider organizing your WeakAuras or whatever it is in the middle of your screen. That Retaliation icon is going to overlap nameplates a lot, as it does in your screenshot. Finally, if I'm nitpicking, you should also consider changing the timestamps in your chat to not include seconds. You don't have to know which second a message was sent, that's incredibly irrelevant unless you partake in... I don't know, auctions via guildchat? :confused: |
