More Shrinkage & Simplicity = Bliss
Well, I must say, since I have 5 hotbars open at once, the reduced size of the hotbar (along with the stripping of the #'s -- thanks, Insom!) has given me a ton more space to use on my new UI arrangement.
However, one thing I did notice as I was rearranging the space, is that the Spell Effects and Maintained Spells window could also benefit from a similar shrinkage. As a healer, I need to see my maintained spells all the time (so I can see when buffs/debuffs/heals have depleted). However, I have also noticed that a decently sized window for those features eats up a lot of room (since I can have as many as 16+ up at once).
So....anyone up for the challenge? : )
Also, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in making a simple XP bar, with the only modification being: put the name of the zone over / under the bar, and maybe center the text.
I like a lot of the other bars that people have modified; they really look nice. But they also have more information than I would like to have, because I like to have my XP bar floating at the top center, away from everything else (so that it is more of an extra feature, not something I would want my eyes drawn to every second or two.
Anyway, not challenging, but a humble request. I must say, I have *loved* getting to look at all of these, and implement them! EQ2 became a lot simpler, and more beautiful, since I began using these mods.
Thanks again!
