UI inspiration

Chops

Soccer Dad
I've grown increasingly bored and frustrated with my UI. It's looking more and more cluttered as, over the years, I've added various add-ons and changed brackets, etcetcetc. It started rather sleek and minimal but has since outgrown itself.

And like I said, Ive also gotten bored of it. It's time for a change.

So I was hoping you guys could show off what youve done with your UIs, so I can steal some ideas or outright copy you because Im as lazy as I am unoriginal.

For reference, here's a random BG screenshot to show you the generally unorganized mess Im working with (BGEnemies typically goes on the right side, midway up. I dont rightly remember why it hid it this BG)

I'm a sucker for 'Z-Perl' (formerly 'X-Perl'). I like to see them faces when I'm busting ya up.
Also 'Tell Me When', so I can see things such as those annoying times my Pet's Stunned / Trapped / Slowed......
A little messy, but I'm used to it now ;)

How do you do it? I’ve got a headache just looking at it lol

I’m continually impressed when I see people work with the stock UI. I get so grouchy that it shows me some things I don’t care about and doesn’t show me stuff I do want to see.
 
This is from a 3-5 months ago. I've made some altercations to my UI since then, but this is pretty much my standard User-Interface.

Oh thats really clean. But where do you put the BG mini map and BGEnemies and all that?


I also use Z-perl but mainly to move my character frame, pretty much everything else it offers I have disabled.

this whole thing started because I wanted my target and mines character frame out of the upper left corner. And it just spiraled out from there. (that and I wanted it to look simpler. all the flourishes on the stock ui are cool but not my style)
 
Standard UI, with a few UI scripts -

What’s the scrip to hide eagles? The old one I used doesn’t work anymore since it got updated. Thanks

On topic: just use default UI if you want to “clean things up” you can move a lot of stuff around with just using macro scripts
Addons are pretty pointless only 3 come to mind that are necessary, 2 of those are irrelevant to Twinking
 
I don't have screenshots of my setup (currently at work), but Elvui is what I use. Super customizable, but also has pretty good defaults. I usually only change a couple of things (I make the utility bar in the top left and hidden unless i mouseover it, and I make the health bars bright green at full health rather than black/gray). It has a lot more than just a UI replacement, so it may be overkill.

The non default UIs are for edgebois and for streamers who want to seem "cool".

The default UI just works. Maybe add TellMeWhen and WeakAuras 2.
