Fuck me, I already had the guy quoted when I read this.InB4 Led tells you almost all your pixel fonts are incorrect sizes.
That's skada as others have mentioned. I'm working on an addon that snapshots your health every 0.5-1.5 seconds along with the amount of healing from outside sources so you can see "oh, in the last 10 seconds the healer is ignoring me" or "ouch I'm getting raped and spam healed, I should probably shield wall so they can catch a break".Except the pixel fonts, quite nice. But I still not know what this bar in the middle is (except HoPo and Castbar, I guess).
And what's the addon left to the minimap?
That's ended up being a bit more work that I planned so to place-hold I'm using Skada's damage meter / death log in that spot to remind me to finish that later. I really need to get my priest setup, server transfered, and race changed before monday night so it's time to move on.
You can get a better idea of how the middle bar works in a video:
It's a combination of cast bar, gcd, holy power, and cs/hor cooldown.
The basic information is being pulled properly but the way it's encoded and displayed needs some work. The changes to CS and how you use holy power make me thing I need something more complicated than I used to use but I'm not sure how that should look. The changes to shield slam make me think that good tanks will probably time that according to boss swings (kinda like healing brutallus back in sunwell) but I'll have to see.
I'm thinking some sort of clever coloring scheme might work better.

Mh, somehow I don't really get it, tbh. It seems for me the bar is just running every sec or so from 100% to 0%. Or is it by far from ready?
— oh, honey.
A new holy power appears when he uses a holy power generator. It's not running by itself, at least I don't think it is. It's there to let him know how much hopo he has.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I don't mean the HoPo bar. I mean the 2 bars above that.
— oh, honey.

Holy pally UI,
I heal for a 25m guild in PvE and everything is mainly located at the bottom,
First one is in OOC, second is in combat.

Heavily modified ElvUI.
Reason for huge action bars at top is to keep an eye on main CDs and such.

The top bar is GCD - typically about 1.5s given the gear I have on that character (tanks don't stack haste after all).
The little bar in the middle is crusader strike's cooldown (typically 4s).
The problem with paladins right now is that CS is 2.75 GCDs worth of cooldown - sometimes you'll want to hold off getting GCD locked to get extra CS/HoRs in. If you look at your abilities there may be no harm in delaying a crusader strike by 1 GCD because you're going to run out of buttons to press in 3 or 4 GCDs anyway. Other times using a proc (like free avengers shield) can bugger things up and you end up with 1 or 2 GCDs in a row with nothing to do.
I'm not exactly sure how this will play at 90. I've done almost nothing since 5.0 came out and this was the first major class change that stood out to me. the old 1,2,1,3,1,4 (repeat) rotation doesn't work - I need to figure out the best way to deal with these changes and the best way I can think of is to carefully watch the interactions for a few weeks.
I would like to get an enemy swing timer involved but I'll worry about that at max level.
tidyplates + threatplates.What nameplate addon you using??
You shouldn't need to use the monocrhome option if you get a well hinted font and use it at a "prefect" resolution. I didn't.Also how do you get the font outline monochrome to work for WeakAuras ProgressBars
EDIT:
Good news, I can get 90% of my UI uploaded via curse addon packs so my permission issue is solved. The only thing left is cleanicons thin/miirgui which in the worst case I can always just direct people to download and install manually. They're not the sort of addons curse handles anyway so if the authors don't give me permission to distribute them it won't be the end of the world. I might have to create a couple of addons just to add my fonts/textures to shared media but that's pretty trivial.
