Working on a Single Mount Button, and Im looking to clean it all up so everything is more uniform with frames and borders.

...

this is my current project, I like the top center map with Unit frames, but I find it a issue with placing of my (bossmods, PVP display, other info that appears up there.

Im thinking about an autohide bar for my (pots, drinks, food, bandages) and another for my (bloodlust, nature swiftness, res, recall) The totem Addon is really great, and i havent found anything quite like it as far as ease of use and performance. I can separate the buttons for totems from the sphere and place the big sphere elsewhere.

I would like a minimalistic feel, but I dont want to loose all my information.

-For example the Combat log only displays during raids.
-Chat only shows a few lines, untill i expand it.
-Different buff bar
-anything else that would help athestics
I would suggest using Geist or something to hide a few of your more unnecessary/lesser used buttons. Do you really need the Find Herbs button out while in combat? Water Walking? Your mount? What I do with all that stuff is either bind them to keys and hide the button completely, or at least put them on Geist so they get the hell off my screen until I need them.

I like how you framed your buttons with the info bars and your casting bar, though.

Only things I dont really like is the minimap placement, as well as showing the empty buttons in your bar mod.

Wanted to keep it with an "evilish" glow to it.

Omen is hidden just to the right of Recount

Appreicate the input, im going to work on the a few tweaks a bit more.

I even am going to us my totem UI to include a button for my mounts (left click - riding/right click - flying). I am going to turn the poison/disease into a single button, that does both. going to try to use mini chat to hide the combat log and chat when not needed. And even look into scaling down my unit frames a bit more.



still a work in progress. I a very minimalist, so I try to make it look good while keeping what i need on the screen for the situation. I am going to work on some Cycircled themed buttons, and some borders and a new frame art.

This is my latest UI, I tend to mess around with it alot. I'm still deciding on wether I prefer a square or round minimap with it. Also Proximo/Recount pop up where Omen is in that shot. The far right two unit frames are focus and focus target.

My buffs on the left, targets buffs/debuffs on the right. My debuffs come up to just above my unit frame, to keep them close to where my eyes sit most of the time.

EDIT: Oh yeah, its also not shown on there, but Quartz cast bars above each unit frame for that unit, with the same minimalist texture.

Comments/suggestions etc. welcome.

The rightclick not turning autoshot on is a default interface function at the top of Interface Options.

In the UI screenshot you made in AV, what's the cooldown monitor that's showing Viper Sting?
That's part of Quartz ("Buffs")

As for the target auras, PitBull's Aura module wasn't included since it has known performance issues for some people (including me.) - however I've put together a zip that will enable them.

Zip includes:

Interface\Addons\PitBull\Auras folder
Updated Quartz config (disables built-in debuff bars)
Updated PitBull config (enables/configures Aura module)
