Hey that is actually true! Heh. I've honestly gone somewhat blind to the notion that players usually sort out some kind of heads-up system themselves, focused as I have been on trying to narrow the focus area of the UI. Still, I have a positively awful habit for flaky-eyeing the action bars myself, when it comes to regular spells with brief cooldowns. And having to look all the way down at the bottom for it it just feels annoying.

Really though, does the portraits feel out of place? Huh! Maybe it's the orb gloss that does it? Or the colour contrast. The colour palette is just about entirely sampled from the default UI frames; dark-brown from the main frame body, similar dark slate-blue as inset backgrounds (like the reputation frame has), and the same metallic grey edges. Maybe it's the contrast, putting dark, earthy tones against high-contrast gold, the gold rings on the default portrait frames are all less contrasted and accompanied by grey, after all.
