I am a huge fan of Diablo and so I am in diablo-fever again right now.
Now what first came into my mind when I saw the Diablo 3 gameplay trailer? I said to myself: I want this UI! Now!
So why not just do it myself? So I grabbed some graphics from diablo3.com and made some TGA-files from it.
Here is the first sneak peak:
The Orbs show Health and Mana and they change on Unit_Health or Unit_Mana-Status.
An earlier Screen shows a near half-full orb:

I don't know where this is getting me, but its looks kinda cool for now.
*update*
I found some really nice, big screenshots showing the interface. So I could started drawing my actionbar-texture. It will have place for 10 icons (more will destroy the look and feel, so mouseover or macros will be needed).
Current design layout:

I made a much smaller minimap-texture too. I am curious about how everything will turn out. We will see.
