I really like this one, the player window, the best, so I put it up for download. It has a transparent background, and the art is done by t.king and then slightly modified. It has no pet bar because I use remelio's pet mod, which has pet HP there. It also has no AA XP because I am not to that level yet. That would be easy to code in though. XP is shown as a percent because I don't think a bar is necessary. Guages left to right:HP, mana, fatigue Numbers left to right: HP, XP, mana __________________ No SoW for you!

I am not too clear on how much of his work he likes floating about but I assume people ask permission first before modding. the piece above is from this piece of work : http://home.attbi.com/~tomjking/tkingward.jpg

Just an idea.. I play a rogue and like this only I have no need for a mana bar at all heh

No, that isn't a piece that was originally made for EQ, nor was it posted in the "supporter's" forum. Instead, if you go to his thread on the main forum, he has a link to his personal artwork page. It can be found there.

Thangor A Snow Cougar Join Date: Aug 2002 Server: Saryrn Posts: 48	Old Demo Scene days In the early days of the PC graphics scene... back in the days of the 286, and 386... there was a term known as "Ripping". Ripping consisted of stealing another person's artwork or copying another person's artwork without their permission. I think it would highly advisable to contact Mr. King and ask him if it's alright if you rip his artwork. Think of it like the "truck" example... someone steals your truck... then they haul some wood around in your truck... then they ask you if they borrow your truck to haul some wood. Perhaps this will help you gain some perspective. __________________ Thangor Tundraborne

It fits right in with all the other t.king stuff I use (which is just about everything he's created). I just had one idea. How hard would it be to combine this mod with one of the flashing target mods, so that there isn't this big floating red border around the graphic? I think that would make it look just that much better.
