I've been struggling with the choice between my old favorite (Discord) Pitbull (3.0/4.0) ag_Unitframes and others. I was wondering if any of you out there had a UI setup that you thought was really clear, uncluttered, but provided enough information for a Multiboxer. If so - please show me your screens!

Ive been using AG unit frames, but for some reason my frames disappear when Im in a raid. I have checked the interface menu and made sure that "hide party" is unchecked, so I dunno what to do anymore other than delete the mod. Wish it were updated.

I followed the thought that I like to have a custom UI, with everything just where I want it and use sites like nostockui.com to read about the features of the addons.
My Preferences:
Buttons - Bartender4
U. Frames - xPerl (you better be ready to sacrifice some memory)
BTW - I don't spend hours rebuilding my console everytime there is a major patch. I have selected these due to the fact that these are high profile systems and tend to get patching done during the beta server runs.

Default UI is the best

Xperl is pretty good. But I do hate the mem hog it is..
I use pitbull, dominos, kg panels for looks, Grid, arkinventory (bags). Plus a ton other addons. Major patches will break a few things but hardly ever has it broke my buttons, ui frames, or any other major addon. The small stuff will break like autobar. But is normally fixed in a day or 2.
I suggest go to www.wowinterface.com and search their compolations and see if you see a ui you like. Tweek it and go from there.
NUI is a very well known UI. And the man who creates it and updates. Keeps it up to date. It is how he makes his living. So if your worried about a ui breaking on patches this is the one to get. His ui is neat. And works pretty well for boxing. Getting used to the button setup is a little different (for me) but it does work great.
Insomniac's I haven't used in some time. Its a little messy when you download it. But again its a guy who runs a major guild and kept it up to date for a very long time. You just have to weed out the bloated stuff you don't want.
Spartian ui is another one that is a well known ui. Works great. Easy to use. Download log in and your set up. The only thing I ever had to adjust was my chat box. Everything else is already done. Does not have a bag addon.

Which addon did you use to move the unit frames? What is the addon that is above your chat frames?

All part of PuppetMaster, but the name's moot since you won't find it anywhere.

MoveAnything or MoveIt should work to move the frames.

Just say no to unit frames and bar mods.
Seriously, go with the stock UI. Whenever Blizzard throws something weird at you (like mounted combat) you'll be ready instead of having to reconfigure your damn UI.
I just hate that my health bars are so stinking tiny and hard to tell what health level they are at a quick glance. That's why I use AG.

never a fan of the cluttered interface - I like to keep it minimalhttp://www.dual-boxing.com/c:%5Cwow2%5Cscreenshots%5Cwowscrnshot_051409_00353 7.jpg

Sam - which UI do you use? This setup looks very similar to mine. Are you using Discord? I tried PitBull, but it doesn't play nice with the default Elite textures etc.

My slaves run the stock ui and Jamba, nothing else, my main runs
Bagnon (HATE the Bliz bag interface, one bag always!)
Bartender4, and I have very few bars up, to reduce clutter. I made a bar look like my number pad, and have heals bound to those keys across the team. It's just a visual "Oh, crap, which one heals the druid again?" kind of thing.
Recount
Omen
Gathermate
DeadlyBossMods
PallyPower
Xperl
I like things simple. My main has a bar for quest/daily items, everything else is hotkeyed or hidden. You don't need all of your talents showing, for any class.
I have a few more tweaks to make, and I'll be happy, for now, like the dailies macro that has all the items on it, just have'nt gotten around to it.

Here are the 2 layouts I have played with.
when I started multiboxing I used X-Perl:

Now I am trying out Pitbull and like it as well
(even though raidframes on X-Perl are great)

Otherwise my essentials are:
Bartender
Omen
Recount
Jamba
FuBar
Prat
SCT
Situational:
DBM & Capping
Hidden:
Bagnon
Cowtip
RatingBuster
Auctioneer / Enchantrix
Cartographer / Gatherer

Oh thank you for this. IT works perfectly getting rid of Toon frames, so I can use Jamba's team list.

I have tried Pitbull, the issue I'm having with it now is "Target" feedback. Basically the UI doesn't seem to change regardless of what happens with my target - in Discord, if a target was Neutral they were Yellow. Once I attacked, they would stay Yellow but then flash red while in combat. Once they were dead, they would turn "dark" yellow. Pitbull doesn't give me any of this kind of feedback - is there a way to do this?

Hmm to be honest I don't think I have attacked a yellow target after my Ptibull switch.
However I believe this feature should enable what you are looking for.
Basically go to Pitbull > Target > Texts > Name
and include this part in the string if it is not already there:
[Name:HostileColor]
Now the name of the target should change color to indicate hostility.
