Has WoW removed the speed limits?
Are we approaching a Solo Raid WoW Experience?

I'll be honest, the bottom of your previous UI was fine, I think it was just the main playing area that was perceived as a little messy. What with the cast bar's location, and the button timer thingy's location.
As for action bars, well personal preference, I can understand why people might like to show them. Personally though I'd prefer no buttons on screen - unfortunately I don't trust myself binding potions, I always end up hitting that exact key by mistake - I never hit the wrong key until I start binding pots, and then I mash them all the time, god knows why, but I don't really fancy wasting pots, so I have a couple of buttons on screen unfortunately :P

Re: Warlock UIs
It was fine, but maybe a little unnecessary. It does look alot more clear. I might show a few things, and hide everything else so i can move them down a bit. The playing areas has been reduced by getting rid of the background (no space for cast bar etc), i got rid of omnicc and am using the cooldown timer, so no need for action bars. Got rid of MSBT as well, don't use it.

Re: Warlock UIs
Changed the 25-man layout so that the healthbars are the same colour as the others with class-coloured names. Any (well, most) comments or suggestions welcome, run out of things I can think to tinker with.

Re: Warlock UIs
At no point did I mean to attack you personally as a player or a human being, I was just posting my thoughts regarding your UI, I hope you didn't take it personally Originally Posted by Jenerena
I posted in response to someone else's UI earlier in the thread that I think that having too much information displayed actively decreases the amount of useful information you can take in. That's why I mentioned the redundancies I saw in your UI. As for the aesthetic stuff, I specifically mentioned that I was talking about the "form" of the UI - I know that the font and the bar textures aren't going to make you a better play, they are just ways to make the UI look pretty.
I think your new versions look MUCH better than the old ones. I still think that showing your action bars is a waste of space, but I haven't found enough people to jump on that bandwagon and hide everything. I personally only have 1 button showing in my UI - dark pact - so that I know if I am in range of my pet.

Re: Warlock UIs

Re: Warlock UIs
I've always just used the standard blizzard ui and arrange things such as grid, dbm, omen, recount, coords around the spare space due to using a widescreen monitor.

Re: Warlock UIs
But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

Re: Warlock UIs
Why do you have skada showing while solo/idle? Looks like it could do with a resize as well. Originally Posted by Bakis

I think unitframe portraits detract from the 'clean' look.
5% Alpha - I can still see 'em.
Map, UF, Skada, Chat... - 1 font to rule them all?
This is the best I can come up with right now. I'll post my current tonight, if you fancy retaliation. Have at you. Noob :P

yea I should fix the font just lazy Originally Posted by ratskinmahoney

Showing BLZ buffs in default and spamminng nametags on enemies as default is something that clutter gamespace if anything.

Re: Warlock UIs
I did, looks better now. I think I need to change my resolution accordingly. It doesn't fit, and I don't know how to change it to 1650x1000 or whatever. Any tips?
