So I mentioned in the channel earlier that I was going to spend some time learning LUA. I think I'm going to try my best to make my own unit frame add on for W*.

I ask of you folks...what information needs to be on a unit frame, in your opinion? My list is as follows so far:

Name
Level
Class
Path
Class resource
(Optional) cast bar
Health bar
Shield bar
Focus bar

I'd also want to gather a set of class colors to use for each class and then a nice green to use if people don't want that. I'd say the green version would turn yellow or red as critical health thresholds were reached.

Anyway, I'll make a new thread once I read more about this stuff and would appreciate community testing if anyone wanted to help me out.

Thanks!

As for features, what features do you guys think should exist? I'm sort of using WoW's XPerl for inspiration I guess.
