Default can someone make a PURE Minimalist UI



Just gonna use Default for example:
1) i have it hidden behind the player window, but the Giant Tabs names (Group, Chat window, etc), could remove these. Make all the windows straight flat boxes (no extra junk).
2) Merge the Target and HoTT for even more room
3) Small Potion Belt
4) make the Song and Spell buffs areas vertical, names and timers displayed, small and compact.

Basically make everything Very Similar to the Player window: Name/HP/Mana/End/Rest Icon/and that goofy speaker thing..thats it. Nothing extra.

Would anybody be so kind as to make up a UI like this. VERY VERY SIMPLE and VERY VERY Minimalist. Alot of people dont post here who are using Default (who dont like it), but its the closest to a minimalist that fits we can get. If someone would theyd do us a Great Great Favor . Also (just thinkin out loud) should be easy to maintain with patches :P

Default

the player window is what i DO like. Small, no extra info: no xp bars, no double stats (hp/mana/end), no tributes, none of that stuff.

No frames, just straight flat boxes (chat windows, hot bars)...
Horizontal Hot bars would be sweet, but some may want Vertical. Spell Gems on default is ok. basically compare Player window and Spell Gems, to like..Group window, Chat windows, etc. Most of us have been playing game long enuf to know which windows do what.

Major Chnages: Smaller Potion Belt, And Vertical Songs/Buffs windows with names of buffs and timers. Pure vertical, but small if possible.

Make sense?

Edit: NM, looks like Smiley already took care of you.



Most of this stuff exists in the interface pieces section already:

Buff window here
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=5630

Minimal group window here
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=5654

Simple target/hott window (not combined but titleless, minimalist)
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=4141
or here (wider but combined in one)
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=4113

Minicombat window here:
http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=5072
It has a title so open the file in a text editor(notepad will work), find the line that says "<Style_Titlebar>true</Style_Titlebar> " (about 20 lines from the bottom) and change it to "<Style_Titlebar>false</Style_Titlebar>" and save.

Small potion belt here:

Chat window here:

Yeah, pretty much everything you are asking for exists already. My own UI, is along the lines of what you describe wanting... not a single title bar in sight.

Horizontal Hotbars, not 2 stacked Vertical...
Actions Window is pretty cool
Buffs and Short Duration make like..... http://www.eqinterface.com/download...nfo.php?id=5185 but show the timers..
