Ok like to get some comments on this mockup. I went back to the original style but looked at how I could streamline it while keeping the same general look and feel and this is what I came up with.
Couple notes on this.
1) I knowin the mockup the text is hard to read, but in game it would be easier since it would have a dropshadow on it. Just like the original version. Since the colors i'm using are identical it shouldn't be an issue for reading.
2) There would be a couple alternate versions of this window all based on this style. The version shown here with the percent text would be resizeable to the rtight to drag the percents off the bars if desired. Another style would remove the percents all together and a 3rd optional style would add the previously seen info block on the other mockups to replace the name. Those would be the 3 styles so different people with different tastes for information should all be able to get what they want.
This same slightly streamlined gauge style would then be used in other places as well.
Thoughts on this style? Like I said it was designed to be very similiar to the existing style that people liked just a bit more compact.
