The HUD is DaHud (you can find it at wowace.com).

Ok maybe i'm a complete idiot and completely missing it, everyone seems to be using that border for everything these days. I would LOVE to use it, i grabbed Roth's ui, found the border put it into my sharedmedia and attempted using it in say... CowTip, it doesn't show up, tried converting it for UI-Tooltip-Border.blp with BLP2Util and it just appears as griant green blotches.


Where can I download this border in a working fashion?

You got something terribly wrong there.

You don't have to put it in ANY other folder, but "Interface\Tooltips\UI-Tooltip-Border.tga" just create a new folder called Tooltips.

This will replace the standard UI-Tooltip-Border texture, no need for any addon at all.

Thanks a lot, Grade!

For some reason the tooltip borders will not show for Cowtip. They do work though for other things, like when I right click my unit frame to bring up the little menu. When I disable Cowtip, Zork's tooltip borders will work for everything.

looks really good! great job as usual.

I wrote a sum up of all my ejerks-posts about the border-stuff on our guild website. Check it out for further information.
Too bad that all surl.se-images are lost :/

If you still got questions, just just ask me.

Your options on editing the default blizzard textures are tremendously, if you look at my latest download (RapidShare: 1-Click Webhosting) you will find a "button"-folder under interface. I edited the textures that will come into play when you hover or click a button. I wanted to play with it at first but it looked great so I kept them. This effect is used on the character panel or the spellbook aswell.

Screenshots cannot tell it really but however this one (http://zorktdmog.zo.funpic.de/roth_u...907_225224.jpg) shows the hover effect. If you want to try it our I suggest you deactivate cyCircled at first.

I actually ended up getting around it Zork by just learning how the tooltips were used and creating my own I now have the perfect UI-Tooltip-Border.blp and have it in SharedMedia using it for all my other Tooltips via CowTip.

Chasy, thats BRILLIANT. If you could find time to put up a DL, i think I'd love you forever?

Eph, I love that setup. I'd like to try and replicate it but would you mind telling me what is the texture for the unit frames and the fonts you are using?

Textures: Flat and Hal O
Font: Paralucent

super work Chasy , i quite like the chat frames ( the fact that there are many of them) as mentioned before by other people i myself would also appriciate a download link if possible

Glad you guys like it, here's a download link:

rar host - free file hosting for .rar files!

Thanks man, your UI looks great as well. By the way, I tried my UI on my 20" iMac, and it works just fine, no strange cropping or similar issues.

That's the most clutter that will ever be on it.

Now, question:

I've been using CTviewport for way too long. I'm really looking to slim it down, and I always see very nice "viewports" on these images. More decorative, sleeker, etc...I was wondering if anyone could direct me toward a few of them (or perhaps if anyone knows of a few nice holy priest UIs, though I really prefer to DIY it .) They may be known more as borders that go around the chatboxes and buttons rather than viewports. I'm just tired of having the static black box at the bottom of my screen.

I've really enjoyed browsing this thread, getting some great ideas.

Awesome! planning on a release?

Wow even since I started using that border around my action bars now everyone is using it

Oh well hopefully it doesn't get totally overdone like gradients did.
