Great UI. This is one of the best ones I've seen made. I love it and will be using it for a long time on my hobbit minstrel. Gives me a little piece of the Shire when I'm roaming across Middle Earth. Thanks.

I just registered to say thank you. I downloaded this skin (my first) after somebody put a link up on the Sanctuary forum.
It is fantastic. I was a little concerned over sizing as I have my resolution set higher than your 'read me' states, but it was fine when I loaded it up.
Well done, on an excellent job keep up the good work.
Thanks,
Bado

I deleted the post because I thought maybe I did something wrong. I double-checked and found that I didn't. It is a problem with the mini version being off-center. I looked at your instructions on how to resolve it and my brain proceded to short circuit. I have no experience with the code to this and I'm not certain of where to make these adjustments.
I think for now I'll stick with the full version for my hobbit character and wait for your next beta to try again. If you would like to send me a new skin definition to try out, I would be more than happy to give it a try for you.

The XP bar portion of it touches the extreme right side of the screen. Could this be because the interface was optimized for a 1600 display and not 1280?

Thanks for testing it on a different resolution. It's a pity that the position of the main bar (aka "letterbox") is determined by x and y, starting from the top left corner. So if someone is using a different resolution it gets shifted.
I indeed positioned it for my own resolution 1600x1200.
I left this in the code to explain it a bit:
<!-- change the X and Y values to reposition for a different screen resolution. 0,0 being top left of the screen.-->
The top left pixel of the main bar is the "key" pixel. As the bar is 1024 width and 110 height, you need to deduct 110 from top (but I guess it cannot get off screen, so that doesn't really matter here), and your screen resolution minus 1024, devided by 2 for the horizontal coords.
So the X coord for you should be something like: (1280 - 1024) / 2 = 256 / 2 = 128. Maybe it's 2 or 3 pixels off, if your docked bars are still centered, but on your screenshot they strangely seem to follow the main bar =).
Let me know if you still got questions
EDIT: ow you seem to have deleted your post already, Elvite ..guess you figured it out already

Hello Elvite
Thanks for the kind words. I had the same problem when I first played the champion on a different server, where I normally play, and I had the VERY same problem you are pointing out. Like "what the..?", on my hunter all was fine, right? So I logged back to my hunter, where I had the skin still enabled, and evrything seemed fine (same screen resolution, same settings, etc). So I get back to the champion.. and.. "what the..?" .. everything is fine!
So I'd suggest: keep the skin applied, exit the game and log back in. I got the idea it's server side or something. Or at least partially.. Please try that. The position seems fine on your screen. So apart from that there should be no difference beteen my screen and yours.
Please report back from what I suggested
Oh and btw.. what you said: "when I use the original files, I get the mini bar". You're correct. I left a bit of code uncorrected:
<Mapping ArtAssetID="LetterBoxBottom" FileName="mainbar-small\letterbox_bottom.tga"></Mapping>
It says.. while it should be:
<Mapping ArtAssetID="LetterBoxBottom" FileName="mainbar\letterbox_bottom.tga"></Mapping>
So this goes for the skindefinition that is without all the repositioning and resizing stuff in it.
Sorry about that!

Mr. Wicked Mouse,
Love what you have done. You are truly a rising talent to keep an eye on. When I tried your 0.97 beta, I had no discernable problems. I am a big fan of minimalized main bars and when I saw you had done this in the new 0.98 beta, I was happy to see it as your interface is among my favorites next to LedMirage's stuff.
I am having problems with the new beta, however. I run the game at a resolution of 1280x1024. I do not know how much that factors into things, but when I run your latest beta without altering any files, (like the SkinDefinition file), the Main Bar graphics appear to be the mini version.
(click on image for full screen version)
When I follow your directions to enable the mini version, (by renaming the SkinDefinition-small file and renaming the original file), the bag and option icons remain in their default position and are not moved under the shingles as intended.
(click on image for full screen version)
Thanks again for your hard work. Hoping this isn't too hard to fix.

I'll see if I can make a "minimalistic" letterbox. I haven't really examined the how to reposition stuff. This is my first attempt on making a skin

Perhaps the "SmallToolbar" may help in checking the code:

Looks marvelous, although I wonder if there will be a "small" edition - excluding the bags and options icons.
