I made a very minor UI mod. I've never worked with XML before (not that its difficult), or really UI mods at all. However, on playing the game, one glaring thing about the UI I noticed was the width of the party health bars. It might not have been so bad if they weren't red, but I took it upon myself to change it. I'm going to upload some screens so you guys can tell me what you think : ) The UI files are waiting for approval on the vault.

You'll have to forgive me for my imageshack usage. But anyway, what do you guys think?

Nice! What about an option to resize the whole portrait box down maybe 25%?

Will this UI adjustment also affect the creatures that you're targetting?

The new blue look goes well with the rest of the UI's colours by the way, nice work.

I didn't mess with the health bars of your target but I'll check it out.

I did get the portraits resized. Still waiting approval on the vault : (

It's up on the vault, here's the link

Click Here

I will be updating it with smaller portraits and possibly a few other things soon as well. I might ask slate if I can incorporate it with his draggable portraits.

I will be working on the health bars of your target tonight as well.

I'm a bit new at this so bear with me : P

Thanks for adding it. Nice guid btw! I'm updating the UI mod on the vault right now to include slimhealth bars for your target. Resizing the portraits will take a bit more time though, as I have to figure out how to properly resize the buff/debuff icons or align them properly.

Odd. I see the new slim bars, however, they do not decrease when I'm taking damage. It's just the same blue bar and never lowers.

Any way to move over the status boxes so they are flush with the health bar again, now that it is thinner?
