For what it's worth, having to have an account to view the screenshot kinda sucks. Course, it could be I'm the only one without one I guess.

Looks nice and clean, when you go to final 'print' maybe make a version without all the filigree. From a personal point of view I like clean straight lines and 90 degree corners, for me a UI has to be functunal but adjustable I am not one for the fancy stuff.

Exactly my thought too. I am trying to make it simple enough that others can customize it fully, even by easily changing the graphic of the framing. Although it is alittle thick because of the shadowing, it still works great from what I tested so far.

There will be 4 different window types:

1) Design border with title
2) Design border without title
3) No Design border with title
4) No Design border without title

I've used the Drakah Legacy Combine UI for a couple of years now and have enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to something new from Drakah.

Very elegant design Drakah, and the filigree isn't overbearing. Very sharp image quality too!

Looking forward to seeing what you do with gauge and button graphics, and tabbox/page graphics.

Name I decided on is "Chromium", unless you have a suggestion.

Here is another screenshot, here is a simple player window, with new gauges.

Not sure what's all that different from the default..
In any case my wife and I have used the WoW interface for quite some time now and we have grown quite attached to it. Is there an update for it? I'm on the way to your site next thing to check.
I along with others I am guessing just do not like the default UI.

Looks good, will like to see it when it's done (and without the filigree.)
