arms mode (largest bar showing my damage ability/intercept cds) :



the 'recently bandaged' debuff bar obviously also shows MS, hamstring, demo etc. on my target.

tank mode (largest bar showing when revenge is lit, shield block is up, shield slam is ready etc.) also showing grid and omen position :



sws also opens just above omen in a similar looking window, and chat as you can see opens bottom left. incoming damage is also displayed via parrot in an arc to the left of my character, with buffs/heals arcing to the right.

Croakus basically nailed it, but I can understand how it could be construed as horribly uninspired; it doesn't reinvent the wheel, it contains no new flashy/gimmicky features, and it's not nearly as compact as the old layout. Forgive me if I disagree with you though.

Here's why I made the changes, and why I think it works better this way:

I wanna see how your UI deals with focused target.
I'll try to pause for a second and take a shot in an arena match, but I think this will probably show you what you're after.

In a raid. Only Omen is missing, and its just below Flurry and just above Uptime Meter on the lower right hand side.

I'd suggest not asking people for an upload of their Interface in the main thread. Stuff like that can be sent through PM's as to not cause cluttering of useless posts in this thread. I'm not a EJ moderator, I'm just trying to look out so you guys don't get infractions for something stupid.

Again, If you want to know if they are going to upload their Interface, send them a private message. You're not contributing in anyway when asking in the main UI thread.

Saeto, I've been working on creating something similar to your UI, and I've been asking around in the Help Center without any luck so I figured I could ask here: The text in the box next to the minimap (memory usage and durability et cetera) is FuBar, I assume - but how do you adjust its font? I can't find it anywhere in any .lua file and I don't really want to change any of the fonts in my World of Warcraft/Fonts folder. How can I achieve what you have, regarding the font?

He is using either an older version of Sltimex or Sltimex and SLStats. not any Fu plugins.

Both can be found at WowInterface.

I'm not sure if this is how he's done it or not, but I'm pretty sure Clearfont2 will change the font of Fubar (as well as a number of other addons and your chat panels, so I don't know if you'd want to use that method.)

Pretty sure it's sltimex and slstats, both of which can be found over at WoWInterface.

It's an older version of SLTimex. YOu could do it with FuBar, and change the font via ClearFont2...but that would require heavly .lua editing or your whole UI using that font.

If there is a new version of SLT + SLS, I'd use that.

This is mine. Extremely basic and old school, but I don't feel that I'm missing out on anything. But if you think I could improve my playing by changing the UI or adding something, I would of course listen .

Well Madman, maybe u should play with te UIscale ^^

I don't wanna be rude , but your Ui is just too classic, 90% Blizzard Ui (expect for Omen and Sws Stats)
Even though all the information are on your screen, you may be able to find great ideas looking at other screenshots in this thread

Binding your spells improves your playing.

After reading it and looking at it a few times, I'm quite anctious to try it for myself, do you think it would be possible for you to upload it (just because I play a shaman myself as well, and if what you say is true, I can make my arena partners alot happier).

I got bored today, and figured while I still have a couple days left on my account, I'd make a new UI.
