1. When you switch from frame and title bar to just frame only the text and the close buttons seem to disappear but not the bar.

2. Some icons in the maintained and effects windows are not rounded like the harvesting icons and AA spell icons.

3. The pet window buttons flash when depressed the follow key is almost always flashing.
Hi Sussie, thanks for your great feedback! I'll try and answer some questions here...

1. I did see a few errors when i used different settings for transparency like the one your asking about. The only answer i can give is that this skin is best experienced in the default window settings with both the frame and no transparency, everything else is experimental.

2. I am aware that not all icons use rounded corners, but this would mean i have to re-draw all icons plus adding new alpha channels (witch did not work the one time i tried it.) All in all, it's a minor flaw that i have accepted.

3. This is due to the new spell queue effect. Same "flash" is used on both places. To me it's a better notification about what spells are queued and what pet options you have selected.

Also, are you going to change icon_map3.dds or icon_eq2map.dds? I'm not sure if we still use icon_map3.dds, but I know for sure that we use icon_eq2map.dds for the blue X and I know we still are using those group 2-6 icons. I'm not sure which .dds it is in though.
Uaaagh !

*recovering from an ui-designer stroke*

Have you any idea of how long i was looking for those borders? hehe it drove me crazy trying to find it. Now looking back using this great information i see now how stupid i was not looking in a outdated chat resource file

In any way, great stuff, i'll add this for sure in a new version... realized this was used in the tooltip borders also.. great stuff, great stuff.

*ui-designer high-five*

About the map icons...

The "icon_map3.dds" i can't even find by having a quick look, perhaps i missed it. And the "icon_eq2map.dds" i had previously checked but concluded that the only stuff in use was the cross, and.... this was really no fun aspect to change hehe.

Bottom line, i really don't have all the information or experience about what icons are used, and i am just replacing stuff as i notice them in-game.

But with the help of you great players i am certain i'll spot them in no time!
