3.31 - Added an improved con indicator to the Target window. Modified the Adventure window so you can resize it to just see the status info. Made Pet Window sizable.

My UI is the result of gradual modifications I have made since the custom UI was introduced. The goal was a simple, ergonomical UI that didn't consume too much screen space yet still offered many advantages over the default UI.

Designed with the input of many different classes, it should be functional and useful to any class.
Works in any resolution (1280x1024 and 1024x768 recommended).
Also 2 box friendly with hotkeys and group members clearly labeled and highly visible health indicators.

New in Version 3.0:

- Added color changing background to health percentages (see pictures below)

90-100%: Green
60-90%: Yellow/Green
30-60%: Red/Yellow
0-30%: Flashing Red/ Red.

- Further compacted MP3 player and created new buttons that better matched the UI.

- Breath gauge and pet gauge change colors as they go down from Green to Yellow to Red.

- New background graphics for buff windows.

- Modified code so the UI is less likely to break with a patch.

- Updated to be 100% compatible with LDoN.

There are some alternate pieces that various people have requested.
They aren't designed to work with other UIs, they are just substitutions for existing windows.

Feel free to modify it however you like to suit your needs, but please give credit where it is due.
