:) Hello, </P><br /><P>I am respectfully and reverently seeking a little advice with regard to my user interface. I am a monk (Bitterirony, The Shortbread Army, Level 31) and Im at the point where Ive tried several configurations and see advantages and disadvantages to each of them.</P><br /><P> </P><br /><P>As I wish to continue in level and aggressiveness, I want the most efficient UI possible, so where t oask how other successful people do it but in the Forum of one of the more successful guilds. If it's not too much to ask, could you either direct me to a past thread showing how you set up your UI in the most efficient manner possible, or could you please email me a screenshot to <A href="mailto:jrlewisjr@mac.com">jrlewisjr@mac.com</A> of your UI, just to give me some ideas of what would be best. Thanks guys, a few Temerity members have helped me with questions in the past and I really appreciate it.</P><br /><P>Bitterirony Cruelfate<br />

What kind of machine do you play on? In particular, how much screen real estate do you have and what GPU are you using?<br /><br />MY powerbook UI is distinct from my external screen UI.<br /><br /><br />Danidianya Whitestar

I used the default UI with a window for all chat, which is the default window, and a window for battle spam. I'm not a big fan of the custom UIs that are out there. Too much fluff and purty graphics. The more innocuous the UI the better.<br /><br /><br />Nihilists! Fuck me. I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.<br>

Like Zatrik, I hate fluff.<BR><BR>That said, using the UI that Cad posted: <A href="http://www.eqmac.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1638">http://www.eqmac.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1638</A><BR><BR>Having the spell cast times below my target, having the names next to all my spells and buffs all the time, and the combined stats/gear/hotkeys pad is useful.<BR><BR>And there aren't pretty sparkly shiny dancy things to take up precious screen realestate.<BR><br /><br /><br />--<BR>
