Amin-Ui

I like the overall uniformity of the UI. While there's more information there than I usually use, everything feels like it's right where it should be. Very nice work!

Pure curiosity, what information do you feel is abundant?

Well, I'm a minimalist at heart, so some of the information you have visible feels, too me, like information I don't necessarily need to see, especially in a PvP environ. Mostly it's just the visible Skada windows you have open (I usually leave those only for PvE encounters), as well as the long-form countdown on your buffs. I also usually hide the combat log so I can pull it up when I really need, versus it constantly being visible.

On the unit frame itself, I don't usually bother with the target's level or character class, and I can glean that information from my nameplates I have active. So mostly it's just very small things, except those three windows at the bottom.

I still REALLY love this UI setup, though. I'd just make some smaller tweaks to free up some screen space, if for no other reason than I'm psychotic like that.

You are right about certain things, I do have reasoning for most of my displayed information though. The class/level display is somewhat abundant, class I guess is more important to me than the level. I dont have that information in my nameplates. As for skada, I dont really do much pvp and the reason I am doing that in the screenshot is to have easy access to display the raidframes (grid) to see the placement in a raid-environment.

About the combat log that is mostly because I'm anal about having a somewhat symmectic setup... I want the left side of my ui to mirror the right side of my ui and I dont know what else to put there other than the combat log. As for the buffs hm, well I guess I dont really know any other way to conveniently set them up to have them clearly viewable without too much hazzle (like fitting them to my uf's).

You've got some points some of them I've already considered and concluded not viable in order to suit my requirements. Some I will actually investigate, like what I can do about the level/class in the UF, the buff bar might be set up in a better way and I might try find alternative information to put where I've got the combat log. I dont even need to see the combat log, it's just there for good measure.

Some suggestions as far as what you posted: I've had good results using "Raven" for my buffs and debuffs. I have short-term buffs and any debuffs I have showing up near my unit frames, and the long term buffs may be fine right where they are. If you're looking to get rid of the combat log, but keep a symmetrical feel, you might be able to move your Skada window and your Minimap to the right hand side of your screen, and give it a KGPanels window that makes it the same size as your chat.

Thanks for your willingness to respond!
