Idea for easier Boxing... Is is possible, for any of you to easily make it so i can see my party nameplates in a different order, like the ability to move them around and shuffle them. The point of this is that i play on my warrior with my priest in tow as a group healer and i need to look at her screen over and over again to see which button to hit to toss a heal on the correct person, if i could shuffle the party nameplates on my warrior so they matched the order the priest see's them in it would make things a TON easier. also is there a addon where i can see the targets of all party members next to their nameplates so i could constantly know what they are targeting just to make sure they are on what i want them to be on?

What you are describing are WoW Addons.
There are several that allow you to view the party members target, focustarget, pets target, etc.
As for making the Unitframes identical on all your characters, theres no reason why you couldn't although it would involve modifying one of the unitframes addons.
a specific wow addon that does most of what you are asking for is:
Pitbull
It is a WoW unit frames addon as Wilbur suggested. I use it, & check the option to sort party by name, so the the same alts are always in the same place.
It doesn't let you move the party names around at will, but sorting by name is as close as I needed.

Pitbull, AG Unit Frames, or Perl / X-Perl are the big name unit frame mods. I prefer AG or Pitbull, but X-Perl is a very good mod to start with. Once you understand the mod check out the others.
As far as low memory usage goes, AG is less than pit. I don't know about X-Perl.
Pitbull has 1 feature that AG does not have though, and that is mouse over unit frames. Which for multi boxing might be good. It will show the unit frame of who/what ever your mouse is pointing at, and it will also show their target. Plus you can use mouse over macros, to cast on the person your mouse is over.
