My new UI, Modified ElvUI.
Still not 100% have to work out the raid frames and not completely satisfied with my buffs but im proud of what I made here.

All of this was made using different addons and for the most part Kgpanels with custom art.
I think they are better like that speed tbh, think u gotta think like, having the most important things in the middle, and seeing our healthbar isnt so important since we mostly check our mana, while having the healingframes in the middle thats important imo, and making the things u use most often bigger and the opposite.

Was also thinking , many uis are really minimal and i wonder how many of those ppl are actually raiding hardmodes like madness etc, and if they even can use uis that are so minimal.
Good minimal UI's show the exact amount of info you need in a easy to process way. If you can't use the UI because it's "to minimal", then it's purely a design flaw. Has nothing to do with minimalism itself though.Was also thinking , many uis are really minimal and i wonder how many of those ppl are actually raiding hardmodes like madness etc, and if they even can use uis that are so minimal.
I have looked at some of the creators of many minimal uis and most of them are doing normals, and i havent seen many of them doing hardmodes, I agree that it takes time to get used playing with a minimal ui, if a minimal ui wouldnt hinder ppl why isnt that many ppl using them for higher progress, or are they just enough for normal modes.

You don't need tons of useless information on the screen to play properly. I could have removed half of the information that was in my UI and still play the game doing hard-modes; the only reason there was quite a bit of information was because when I released it people wanted me to display more things.
I could quite easily raid with a player, target and ToT frame with a DBM timer and nothing else on the screen. I look at the game world itself more than anything. The only time I look at the UI is for a quick, which is usually less than a second.

That is true u dont need much to be able to play, but if ur tracking lots of things, 7-8 cds , tracking ur mana, and ur unitframes (healing perspective) atleast for me, i couldnt be able to heal with for example a 20 pixel high frame, like some elements need to be bigger for me atleast, this is from a healing point, maybe u need less things if ur a tank or a dps.
