Hey all, Hope u don't mind Moongaze I had a couple peeps ask what I use for my UI art and I thought posting a screenie would best show them how it looks overall instead of just the little bits I revealed in the answer I gave a new member Note: This is a WIP (Work In Progress) atm however for all intents and purposes I use it on a daily basis. So here's the screenshot (in Party Configuration Mode so you can see placement of the Unitframes): I use a plethora of mods to get my UI to look like this. Some of you asked about the Art, that is handled by a Mod called Discord Art. Its takes a few tries to figure out how it all works however, in the end the results are nice and as unique as you are Here's a link to the Discord Mods website: www.discordmods.com/cgi-bin/page.pl The website is a bit of a mess imo (being a web developer myself) however it contains all the info you need to know how to use all of the various Discord Mods. I only use the Art Mod from Discord (for my Unitframes I use PitBull). There is also a great tutorial on how to use the Discord Art Mod to modify your UI however at the time of this posting it appears to be down - not sure why - maybe it is being updated. I'll check it periodically and when its back up I'll post it here. If you got any questsions about the rest of the stuff I use please speak up I'd be happy to share with ya'll ;D Ele

Hmmm
Nice looking setup you have, i like how it seems like lunarsphere is almost "embedded" into the rest of your UI.
Maybe we should start a thread of how different people integrate lunar sphere into their user interface.

thx for the kind words wolf ;D
I think that would be a great idea - I can rename this thread and take out my name so its more generic and others can post their screenshots here too ;D

Well, when LS is finished, I'll post a screen of how my UI looks. It'll be entertaining, to say the least ;D

methusela you have to make sure you get the 1.52 Version of Discord Art and I'd be happy to share my UI; however 1) its still a WIP and 2) its only for Resolution 1024x768 atm as my nice monitor died on me and I was forced to resort to my smaller LCD screen, so to make this UI work with any other resolution would require massive amounts of tweaking. I recall I had a really horrid time tracking down ver 1.52 so I've included link here to the latest files that work with WoW for those who want to try it out (like I said the Discord Mods site is a real mess ...lol): www.fileden.com/files/2007/6/14/1175659/My%20Documents/DART%201.52.zipAfter you unzip the files, there is an HTML page in the DiscordArt Folder that is a manual on how to use it. Have fun ;D Ele

I have to say... I am most impressed by your usage of the Discord Art packaging... my Druid main uses Discord Art, Unitframes and Frame Modifier... though I am not sure how much longer I will be able to use them with the lack of updates. However... with LunarSphere on the way up, I look forward to the ability to completely disregard Venantes/Totemus/etc. -- while I have already dropped Venantes on my Hunter... it was nice to be able to create a sphere for my Druid as well.

roflmao I have never been "omgwtfpwnt" in the 2 years I have been playing WoW. ;D I have my UI set up like this so I enjoy being in the game much the same way I have my OS skinned so I enjoy working in it hours at a time And I was using a HUD and ag_Unitframes until PitBull was released and I dumped those two and use only PitBull now ;D Ele

;D its the capricorn in me methusela....haha oh and just so I was clear all that Discord Art does is add the Artwork shown in my UI. The rest of the UI modifications come from about 30 odd mods Im using. If you'd like to see what mods I'm using please see this thread at my guild's website: Guild Master's CornerEle
