I'm having a similar issue. Have created folder named journal in the UI directory. All custom xml files are in that directory, not in any subdirectory within it. Created eq2.ini file in notepad (in EQ2 root directory), it contains the following:

cl_ui_skinname journal
cl_ui_subdir UI/

Booted game, no custom elements. Re-read install instructions, saw advice saying to swap the order of the 2 lines of text if it doesn't initially work, resaved, restarted & still nothing. Any help appreciated. Am about to quit out of game again & try some creative capitalization of the folder name too.

EDIT: Was reading another thread on here about install probs and decided to try the /loadui command even though its said to be bugged. Insom's mods appeared in my list, so I clicked on it. Now, I had placed mod files for quest journal, 3/4 hotkeys & advanced map in my journal UI folder. When selecting Insom's mod, the hotkey's shrank, it reverted me to one chat window, my name appeared as Longestnamepossiblemy xp bar reading changed from one yellow to 1/2 way through lvl with a ton of debt, I was suddenly listed as lvl 50, etc etc etc. Needless to say I reverted to default, camped out, overwrote my character UI file with a copy of one of my other chars (I keep all my alts with same UI setup) & came back into game. If this is what will happen when I apply custom mods, then its not worth it. Please help!
