Thanks, Phanx. I'll look into making the fury bar change colors, for now I'm using a combination of what I had to see when embers are full, and the plugin you pointed me to for bars.
That plugin also is a great example of why I hate to use those plugins... it's horribly out of date (not updated for 5.2), it's currently set up in a way that it'll always only show 3 shards, which was easy to fix, but they hadn't found it necessary to spend their time on changing a 3 to a 4 and commenting out a section searching for a glyph that no longer exists...
Anyway, it's great right now, because that plugin solves shards, embers, and the fury bar all at once (after modification), all it doesn't do is have a good color for the fury bar, or color changing for the fury bar, and I'm assuming it doesn't have a different color for the green thing I still haven't had time to look into (from what I read it's a purely cosmetic thing... is that acurate?)
Thanks again to both of you, it's WAY better now.
here's it so far:
