I love this UI:
http://www.wegame.com/view/UI/sizes/

Does anyone know how I get the seperation of the buttons, chat window etc. and the actual "gaming" window?

Its like a seperation of the screen.

Do you mean how do you "shrink" the 3D world view to only use part of the screen? Get a viewport-changing addon, e.g. SunnArt

Im looking for the mod he uses to create two frames, the lower one (chat, keys, map etc.) and the upper one (the normal game view). Is it fubar?

I have seen this in several pics around the web but I don't know how to create it.

He's not using a viewport he just has the alpha up all the way (no opacity) on his bottem stuffs.

His UI is a lot like mine:

I think peal lets you square the unit frames, not sure how he gets everything else square but I also saw an example about that. Search for "minimalistic" UI's.

Fuzzy's UI, whos team Pic is posted by the OP, uses kgPanels or something similar. I also use the same setup as Fuzzy does, as he is the one who showed me the setup. But i have also added CT_Viewport to mine so im not hiding anything under the kgpanel everyone that would normally be visible is in the viewscreen above the keys and map info.

Nice info thanks alot guys!

I looked on youtube yesterday and found a link to eePanel and then to the kgPanel as you suggested. My only problem with this is the missing stuff. Ill try the mod you suggest so I can see the whole "gaming view" and not hiding anything behind the bar.

I also downloaded the pMM mod, for a clean looking minimap.

Since I booted my old mods etc. some of them have stopped working, like gatherer etc. Guess ill have to start over hehe. Again, thanks for the help. Its such a sweet looking UI!
