Well, Crumpet's has an addon's section, but that really doesn't show people what all you have goin on. I am curious about not only what you have running, but how you have it set up on screen. Are you more into the data side than the graphical representation of that data? Or are you more like me, and enjoy a good looking UI which doesn't cover up much of the screen, but still show what you want it to?

So post em up, discuss, w/e.

I use XPerl UI.

Zero, what are you using? that look badass.

Um, Spartan UI is the main bit of it. Also have fubar and several of it's addon's.

Here's mine, Nice and plain!
(All low settings cos i was rendering a video and running CSS in the background. My pc isnt great, lol)

Hmm, I'll pot mine later when I log on .. just have to say I hate my UI's. Can't for the life of me find a decent one .. tried spartan .. way too big for me .. tried everything on wowinterface .. all sucks.

Tried messing with pitbull and bartender .. sucked for me too .. couldn't get the hang of it. Now stuck with these irritating default xPerl frames .. zzz.

Finally was bothered to make a unique UI. Here goes.

xperl is shit. A flaming pile of poo.

Pitbull is better than xperl in pretty much every way. Also, if you've got just default settings of your addons, it usually looks like shit.

My looks like poo right now, though I like the way I've got the unit frames setup. Everything I've been too lazy to pretty up though.

Personal opinion cuch. I'm not fond of Pitbull, I don't like the way it looks.

Older screenie to show my UI; haven't taken a recent one with new gear on.

The way that usually reads when I see people post this is "I don't know how to customize pitbull and I'm not willing to learn"

Ok, I might sound a little harsh, but honestly, Pitbull is not hard to learn how to configure, it's intimidating due to the volume of options, but most of them do the same thing frame to frame, so you really only need to learn how to do it once for one frame and then you can do it wherever you need to.

I have a rule when looking at the UI and Macro forum and it's that I never open a picture when the post says xperl in the addon list. Why? Because 99.9% of such posts are garbage cobbled together out of addons in their default configuration.

By all means, if your UI works for you, that's fine, keep it like it is for your own you, but the minute you post a picture, it no longer matters to the viewer whether it works for you, they're critiquing it.

Here's a bunch of UIs with differing unitframes. I'll give you one guess what UF addon can do all that and it's not xperl!

/endrant (If you haven't notice, I absolutely despise xperl and in fact, the full name of the addon should be "xperl: making your UI look terrible for years"

I never doubted it's versatility, you never needed to prove it to me, because I know that. All I did was give my opinion like you did yours; I do not like the look of it. Xperl shows me exactly what I need to know, and does it well.

I tried using xperl after doing the aces high quest for a few weeks.. frustrating as hell, then the dragon bar doesn't pop up and die and fall down for 10 minutes.. arg. Uninstalled and swore only to use the default ui from then on :p

But the last screenshot cuch posted looks great imo

I'm in the process of leveling my mage, but I only use Questhelper.
