Well I started working again on putting this skin in-game and it is actually coming along really well so far. I redid it quite a bit.

View

Changes:
- The main crystal is now behind the HP/Mana/etc. bars instead of infront so that way you can see all of the bars.
- I took away the target crystal and border because  I can\'t make it only appear when somone is targeted.
- I changed the font colors to white so they are more visible.
- I found a way to make the HP/Mana/etc. bars to look beveled so they aren\'t flat.
- Changed the Stamina to only PsyStamina and changed its color becuase I Personally don\'t use the MenStamina but if I put this up for download when its down I will fix it to display both.
- I also added a custom cursor.

I haven\'t added spell power or attack stance yet since I personlly never use them, but I will add them soon. And I will also make progression points visible.

Well that\'s it for now. I\'m leaving on Friday and won\'t be back for a week after, and when I get back I will have a few days until I start school again so I will work hard to get some more things done before I leave because after Friday I won\'t have time to work on it for a while.

Dunno, on that last one the target info just seems a bit too \"lost\" and in the open... but its great work still. Mabye the target info could be right under the character info or something?

I love it. It\'s awesome and very wonderfully clean. I still like the toolbar-in-a-PS-gem idea, you should try that next :P

Very, very nice. I want it. A lot :D

Very wow inspired :)
Even the ranking on the top left. ;D

You should go one more step into the wow direction and add a quickbar with two rows on the bottom.

And the first versions you did where very much vivid and clearer. :)

Yes I did get most of the inspiration from Wow which I was playing at the time. And I did actually make a version with a quicklaunch bar.

Well I haven\'t been around in a while because my computer died, but now I finally have a new one. Unfortunately all my work on the gui was lost because like and idiot I didn\'t backup my files and so it was all lost when my computer gave up.

I didn\'t really like where the concept was going anyways.  I tried too hard to base it around the PS crystal and it wasted space and made the gui larger than it had to be. My newest concept is much more minimalistic but not PS themed.

As a very enthusiastic fan of minimalism, I must say, that rocks. That rocks hard :)

/me steals one and dips it in milk >:D

I love the minimal design, but I think it could technically be simplified further, literally making the bars smaller, and perhaps in a column with spaces between the types, e.g. your char\'s stuff, space, selected char\'s health, space, ...
