Thank you sir!

I don't plan on increasing fontsizes until I have finished the UI for 1024x768.. (My Resolution )

I understand, There is I in team though! , Kidding.. I used 1024x768 Exclusively for many years only until recently I upped it a *TAD* to 1152x864 -- Which if you do the math comes out to a .75 Ratio, The same as our beloved 1024x768. IE: The proportions are exact, just more screenspace.

As I saw you mention, your monitor only goes to x resolution at 60 some odd refresh.. Alot of people underestimate Refresh rates.. Either my eyes are super sensitive, or I have just been around my beloved 100hz Refresh lock on both my comps for 5 years. Anyhow, The bump in screen space at 1152x864 was only done on 2 conditions -- A) My monitor supported 100Hz ,..NO less with it, and B) It didn't impair playability , IE: Video Lag, AkA Decreased Framerates. Both conditions were met, and wallah -- I'm used to it, have more actual room to SEE the game, rather than 60% of my screen for UI and 40% game window (Remember the OLD EQ1 days with the Big Frame?) hehe.

Next Version I increased the contrast the colered back grounds for gauges by darkening it some and lightening the foreground some..
Check it out when I release it, and let me know if the grey is still needed..
I kinda don't want to do this because I will have to add mods for every window with a gauge..

It's all about the contrast, And Some color on black is normally the most contrast you can obtain-- However your solution sounds like just enough to add flavor while meeting my *oh so stringent* requirements

I won't bother you to do the darker backgrounds on the gauges if it is a headache.. Trust me, I know design headaches!

Ok I added brand new Hotkeys to Beta 7.. The Bank selector disappears and shows with the frame.. I also added a button to the upper left corner of the frame to toggle it.. If you click the bank number on the bank selector the labels turn off and on.. There will be mods to default the labels off..

Very, very nice! Integrating them into the frames is smart, sort of turns your Chat options into an auto toggle... However, those same options don't save, so your mods to default them off is Smart.

Yep I'm Involved.. This is my baby, my personal UI, I love tinkering with the UI..

Agathorn has done a few mods available in the thread and I believe one or two windows that are in the UI package so far. And, I appreciate his/her and everyone elses input

I felt a little silly after posting that question upon thinking, hmm lets go back to thread page 1 and just look. Ahh Talons starts the entire thing of course,.. *Insert foot in mouth*.. I know and remember your hard work with Tablets through EQ1, I used it for years, and am very pleased to see you at work with II. (And as you can see, I'm not alone! ) .

I am also very impressed with your cander in which you have taken the time to address each and every one of us "users and fans" individually,.. Also that you have supported a *free* product this long. I suppose if you didn't play would you still do it? You said you loved tinkering with them, so I think you might.

Anyhow, I anxiously await the release of your next version. Take your time to include all fixes you can,.. We all want it now, but the more you can offer the better. Unless of course you plan on monitoring your release for a few days and throw out some patches to us.

Take care,
