What does your UI look like?

[Mocktar]

I thought it would be interesting (at least to me) what everyone's UI looks like. Here is a link for both my characters. I try and keep the same setup so I don't lose my mind as to where something is.

I am not really sure how to show a link like this.. tell me and I'LL TRY  oops to link mine

[Mocktar]

Well, first you have to have a image upload provider. Personally, I use www.photobucket.com but there are several others. Next, while in game you take a screen shot using your Print Screen button on your keyboard. Find the Screen Shots folder in your WoW directory and load it up on said image upload provider. Typically they provide links for the images like mine.

Oooo UI modification! my fav subject  ;D

My Idle UI


SORT of what my raid UI looks like cept thats an out of date picture

[Ruhnaui]

Ok Actor.... I am in love with your UI!
That is what I want mine to look like, but I am hopeless at configuring stuff like Grid, so I suspect that I won't be able to get my UI in shape.
What mods do you use to have the setup at the bottom like that?
I use Xperl, but the rest of my mods don't really change the look of my UI all that much. I do have Squeenix, which is a square map, but it's still in the same place.
I have cycircled, but can't figure out how to use it.
Thanks!

oh wow goodness I could write an essay on all the addons I use. Well the main ones that alter the look of my UI are:

Prat 2.0 - Chat framework addon, changes the functionality and look of the chat boxes etc

Chat bar - Simple lil bronze bar above my chat windows that allow me to open a chat box in any channel without having to type out the channel name etc

Bongos - Actionbar addon, makes all the actionbars configurable and moveable. Allows you to remove, add and change the size of all the actionbars as well as the bags and system bars

Simpleminimap - My mini map addon, allows you to move, change size and shape as well as border of the minimap. Not overly configurable but useful nonetheless

AG_Unitframes - Similar to Xperl only less configurable and alot buggier. However I like the look of the styles more than Xperl. If you want a super configurable set of unit frames get Pitbull but beware unless you REALLY know what your doing or REALLLY want a particular look for your UI stay away, stupid addon has like 10billion options and can get confusing very very quickly

Cy-circled - Very simple addon used to change the look of the action buttons. Downloadable themes etc help customize the look of your UI just that little bit more.

Trinket Menu - AWESOME addon for managing your trinkets, search for it on curse.com, download it and never look back....seriously, its AMAZING.

Minimap button frame -  Small addon that groups all your addon buttons together and puts them in a very manageable, draggable box that you can hide or like me, work it into your UI (bottom right row of tiny circle buttons on my UI)

Elkano's Buff Bars - Highly configurable buff bars that you can move, resize, recolor, etc etc

Sunnart Viewport - That big beautiful blackish art frame along the bottom of my UI that has everything neatly sized into it. Configurable viewport addon that can have artwork downloaded into it to create that perfect looking UI. Kinda memory heavy sometimes depending on how much of the options your using

Outfitter - Addon for managing different gear/outfit sets. Very useful to me as a tank with 7 different gear sets to work with.

Autobar - useful lil diddy bar I use to auto manage my consumables/pots/buff foods etc. Takes a while to set up but once you do saves you SOOO much time not having to troll through your bags to find the +20 stam food instead of clicking the +20 hit rating food!


There are also a wack load more addons I use for various things related both to tanking and AH stuff etc, as well as another wack load of raid addons I used when hardcore raiding....most of which are redundant to me atm.

If you ever need addon advice or help setting any thing up just hit me up with a PM or in game if I'm online and I'd be happy to help. UI modification is mah fav!!  ;D

Oh wow..thank you so much
I have some of those already, I am a big addon junkie, but unfortunately, don't really know what I'm doing!
Pitbull had me tearing my hair out. I loved the idea, but just couldn't figure it out. Xperl isn't the prettiest, but at least I could set it up. I have Cy-circled downloaded but not active. I have Elbuffbars and love it. I also have Prat and Outfitter.
I really like the idea of the minimap button frame. All my buttons are around the outside of my square map, but not terribly movable and they don't look nice.
I will check out the rest of it, I really want every thing similar to how you've got the bottom setup, but just didn't know what to download to make it look better. I really hate my actionbars (the Blizzard ones) and hope that I can actually figure out how to configure the stuff once I download it.
I love using addons and I want a super clean look that I can use for all my (and my daughter's) toons.
Thanks again and I will probably have specific questions once I get everything downloaded!

I stumbled across this a short while ago and thought that somebody might like to have a look at it

http://www.spartanui.com/

Its a standalone complete UI addon, zero configuration very easy to install and use. Not my cup of tea personally as I prefer much more control over my UI but for anyone not experienced with addons this is a fantastic UI modification that looks pretty as hell too.

[Apocunderurbed]

I use:

Proximo - for arena (kinda cheating :D)

bartender - task bar modifier

Itemrack - set up your armor sets and pusha a button to switch them, YAY

Omen/bigwigs - for raiding and threat monitors

thats it

[Ruhnaui]

well, i had to redownload ALL my addons so i figured I could start over again. However, it looks as if I am just NOT experienced enough. I have bongos, and am having a hard time setting up the action bar how I want it. I cannot find the nice frame art anywhere, and I have looked all over the place. I am tempted to just download the spartan one that was posted, and hope I can add my own addons within it. I like my Xperl unit frames, and of course I use the DBM and Omen as well as Healbot and a few other druid and hunter specific addons. I am hoping that if I download this UI that I can customize it somewhat. I wish I was better at understanding things, but I can't even get healbot to work as I want it to. It refuses to let me change to different buttons instead of what it came with for my druid.
Instead of spending hours more being frustrated, as I have already spent a good 3-4 hours with not a whole lot accomplished, I think I will call it a day and try this one instead. It isn't exactly what I was hoping for but it looks much better than the standard UI that I refuse to use!

[Ruhnaui]

ok, here it is in all its glory.
Not too bad.... I shall have to see how it is in party/raid groups to make sure it will function. So far, it will work until I can figure out how to do better.
Now I have to go find all my macros and put them in as well. EDIT: I only download the basic version, not the one with all the bells and whistles, I figured that I could add my own things as I wish and that it might be less cluttered. It reminds me of a car dashboard!

/bump with my latest UI build for my mage:



Totally built for PvP really so not as pretty as my tank's but super easy to use and low on mem usage

[papalovebear]

interesting.  You're as full as I am :)

[Actor]

That shot is of my ui in full raid tilt, looks a LOT cleaner without all the procs (Clearcasting(White ring) AND Frostbite(Snowflake)) and msgs you get from AV.

I have an idle shot on my computer at home but right now im at work so i'll upload it later
