Anyone know a good Ace2 addon that does whispers in a IM-style chatbox?

DoTimer
In order to make my warlock-twink suitable for joining a raid I have been reading through many theory-craft and addon-choices-threads lately. In one of them (I couldn´t come up with the post anymore - sorry) a fellow warlock mentioned an addon, which tracks your dots on different mobs and leave ghostbars after they fade. Clicking those ghostbars would refresh the dot on the specific mob. I thought, that would be DoTimer and installed this addon. I´m quite satisfied with the looks of it, but I don´t get the ghostbars to do anything than... looking good (not that I´m complaining).
Being new to playing a warlock in raid-content, that would be a great help to keep myself organised - does anybody know if there is a different addon capable of doing this or if DoTimer can be modified to make its ghostbars clickable?
Help would be greatly appreciated.

That´s a HUD - searching at curse.com, I´ve come up with two popular ones:
ArcHUD - looks more like it, but its a bit outdated
MetaHUD - newer, but slightly different looks

I found something better than what I wanted in the first place.

I know Quartz is probably supposed to do something like this, but maybe i'm just missing something in the config. Being a tree druid, i'm more comfortable with constantly spamming my insta-cast spells, rather than trying to time them to the global cooldown. I've been noticing 2 things, possibly new since 2.3:
- constant spamming a button during the global cooldown will often bork a cast in a way that's hard to explain, but i'm sure it's slowing down my HOT spamming
- if i DO slow down and time things just right, i can hit my spells when the global cooldown is about 3/4 done, and they will cast perfectly fine.
timing this sort of thing on the run, while avoiding whatever random spells i need to avoid, and constantly changing targets is a bit of problem for me though. SO, i'd love to find a mod that will ignore all my button spam until it's the "right" time to actually hit the button, handling all of the timing for me. Will Quartz do this? Perhaps another mod?

This existed in vanilla wow, doesn't anymore. A dynamic frame cannot target a mob, nor can it cast a spell.

That’s not possible. Wait for 2.3.2, it seems most of gcd issues fixed there. On a sidenote, there is handy gcd spark bar in quartz.

Cooldown Addon That Just Shows Icons?
I can't link a screenshot if what I'm talking about since I haven't seen such an addon, but does anyone know of a Cooldown addon that will just show an icon of what you have on cooldown and a text timer. If it uses WoW Ace or Rock that would be even more imba.
I don't want any bar displays or anything that 99% of cooldown timers do, just want an icon whose position/appearance I can change, and a text timer whose position/appearance I can change. I've looked at dozens of cooldown addons but all of them show bars which I don't want and can't get rid of.
Would also be a nice if the same addon could show when a magic school becomes on cooldown because it got interrupted, though this isn't essential.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I think Cooling is the thing you're looking for
Cooling on Curse
It creates buttons when the spells/items are on CD. Works great when you have all your spells bound to keys and hidden bars. I've played with these for a long time and they work just fine. Not ace though.

It has both Clock/latency/MB module and the above modules you're linking. Haven't tried it myself, but from the posts I've read on this forum this must be it.

Also not Ace, but the Cooldown meter that's packaged with DoTimer has the option to display only the icon and timer text. I believe you can install the Core and Cooldown components without anything else, if that's all you want. It's what I used for a long time. Available here.

That seems to be pretty much what I had in mind, will give it a go when I can. Thanks for the help.

Not even sure if this one still excists, but I'd need an addon that monitors my expenses in detail. I'd like to know exactly what I spend my money on.

I'm looking for the add-on that the shaman on Pandemic uses that broadcasts interrupts/buffs purged/grounding totem absorbs. I'm mainly looking because I'm deaf, so having a chat addon like that would be incredibly useful for someone who can't communicate via vent when I use my shocks/CDs.
Video's in this link for reference: Team Pandemic - Features - Sck's Arena Video Week in Review
At first, I thought it was the addon ShamanFriend, but it doesn't broadcast interrupts/purges to the party channel, just to your chatframe/RW to my knowledge. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

AuditorFu should be exactly what you're after. I haven't used it in the past month or so but until then it worked a treat.

It's ShamanFriend, you just have to enable the option in the GUI / commands, here's a screenshot of the modified Priest version to give you some guidance...

Does anyone know of a mod or macro even that will sell all greys when you arrive at a vendor? Then the opposite, when you arrive at a vendor it will tell you how many anhks or other reagents you need to buy given how many you want?

Aceprofit or garbagefu for first. If you only need ankhs, try Ankh Cooldown Timer, there is ankh count and auto refill when you talk with reagent vendor. FreeRefills can be used for any vendor items.

I'm not 100% sure if this is the right place to post it. But I remember seeing a UI I really liked a while back in the Post your UI thread. It was from what I think was a mage, everything was tinted blue and had the bars centralized at the bottom with a sort of blue electrified background. If anybody could help me find the owner or a package of this, that would be great!

I am looking for a good mod to track procs and uptimes. Not just a mod that counts procs, but one that can show how much of a fight a buff was up counting for overlaps. I think this should be possible now since the combat log shows you losing the buff early and regaining it immediately after, but I havent seen anything utilizing that.
I am also still looking for a cooldown count with increments less than 1 second.

But the re-applying of self-refreshing procs should be only trackable once its added and IF its added in the combat log revamp in 2.4
I am myself looking for a multi-proc monitor mod at the moment, input is definitely appreciated.
