Vallant UI

To be honest, I've never been fan of buff bars. I really prefer icon holding time text. I netheir like complex texture for background, I really prefer lite shadow.
I also find that you chat box is a bit to thin.
And I guess that you could manage to integrate pally power a bit more to the rest of your interface.

that's only problems u found? the whole UI is a problem, OMG.

Maby try to be abit more constructive with your critism please?

dont try to cram everything in the bottom if ur going to look at the stuff during the fight; make sure things are where they are convenient.

you could shrink down your raid frames a bit

get rid of the combat frame unless you are needing to look at it during the fight constantly; it usually doesnt need t obe separated from the main chat frame

you could shrink the padding around the minimap

you could remove the spacing between the buffs to shrink them a bit

and as stated before, you could enlarge the chat frame (because that bothers me too)

im also not a fan of the fubar or whatever across the top of the screen but that doesn't take much room so whatev

Since the days of BodaUI I have detested comps that "block" everything at the bottem when everything thats going on is in the middle of your screen. Makes me feel like Im playing the UI instead of the game.

Meh, you like it thats all the matters :)

Like others said, I don't care for stuffing so many UI elements (action bars, unit frames, map) into a box in the bottom of the screen. The one appeal I can see is the almost completely clear screen, but when it comes down to it you don't need that much space to see what's going on.

Other suggestions;
Shrink the raid frames down for a tank/dps role
Different size buttons, never understood why anyone would want those
Buffs take up more space than they need
Where is YOUR frame?

Many thanks for the comments guys, all your points are duely noted. Going to start fresh i think and move away from the block at the bottom.
The reason for this is Gloss's quote "Makes me feel like im playing the UI instead of the game" which hit home like a sledge hammer. That indeed is true. If any of you guys are tanks, i would love to see examples of your UI's for some inspiration.
Many thanks

This UI looks amazing for a paladin and I really wish I could use it myself.
