The API changes Blizzard released with 2.0.0 broke 99.999% of the mods, you're using a fan update version most likely.

I still use DiscordArt ... probably a fan update version. Is there another alternative out there? An Ace one, perhaps?

Same, I've been using a fan updated version of DiscordArt ever since 2.0 came out with little trouble. The memory it uses is worth my UI looking a little less bland due to all the Ace mods :P

I think there are several ace mod options for adding a little texture art to UI's (eepanels is popular), but I'm not sure if there's an alternative for DiscordArt's loading of custom textures. If there is, I'd be willing to give it a try.

Flexbar had a steep learning curve, and took considerable effort to set up. The reason why it wasnt as popular is because other bar mods made life much more easy. In Flexbar, you had to do everything via commands and simultaneously keep the documentation open for reference. But once you got the hang of it... you could so some pretty crazy stuff.
For example,
I had a script that bound my healthstone, whipper root and potion to the same button (the "F" key). The Flexbar script would automatically switch depending on which of those consumables were on cooldown. So whenever I ran low on health, all I had to do was tap my "F" key a couple times without ever worrying about ("oh shit, my potion is on timer, should use Whipper instead"). Great for PvP.

Discordmods.com is down and there is a post in the official UI forums that he's stopping development on the mods.

Here's the link WoW Forums -> Discord Mods finally gone for good

That's pretty bad news =( Since I still used DFM and DArt, I was hoping for an official update.
