Please Note: No fear that it has a blue background, it is actually transparent, I just happened to be facing a somewhat blue coloured wall.Note: No fear that it has a blue background, it is actually transparent, I just happened to be facing a somewhat blue coloured wall. __________________ "My friends, love is better than anger.

The first buff is placed correctly with the name below, but the 2nd buff icon pops up below the 1st covering the writing of the 1st and then the name is sent to the side. Strange..oh well, lemme know if ya have a fix fer this. Thx

Download is now the proper one. /edit Also, asking Kudane to update the download on the main page to reflect the correct one. Please let me know if you have any further problems with it.

Looks good! __________________

Thanks Remelio. I wonder who I get my inspiration from?

There are actually supposed to be small borders around the icons. I see that the blue isn't showing up. I haven't yet had a chance to actually play EQ since I modified this, to discover if the red ones will show or not. If the red ones do show up, I'll run with it the way it is. If they don't, however, I'll try to figure out why not and see if I can figure out the coding so that they do.

Rebaidah An Icepaw Kobold Join Date: Jul 2002 Posts: 80	I had same problem with it disappearing. It was there, just off the screen. I have a "bakup" folder I always use when I change a file. I /loadskin bakup 1 then moved my buff window to the middle of my screen. Then I reloaded the directory with the new mod /loadskin druid 1 and the buff window showed up. It didn't turn out working for me, doesn't seem compatible with the Sokol/Vert stuff. But that is how I got it to show up at least.

A lot of my buffs names at raids get cut off still gotta check them the old way. Otherwise i love this buff bar! Been waiting forever for someone to make one like this, i wouldv'e made one a long time ago if i knew much about modding these things.
