Default Player, Pet, Target, Implied, Group, and Raid window group

If anyone else would possibly want to do this, I would be GREATLY appreciative. And if ya want more community support (to show how many people would like this), I'll find some folks who would want it too.

Just look at the attached pictures as a guide, and I'll explain what parts might be less clear.

All Text:
  • The idea is to have maximum visibility & readability (sans serif, drop shadow), so use whatever you think brings maximum visibility.

HP & Power bars for Player, Pet, Target, and Implied:
  • HP and Power bars themselves are 100px wide x 10px tall, 1px padding and then 1px gold border, and have 1 px padding between themselves
  • *If you can make the % numbers smaller yet equally visible, shrink the HP & power bars vertically---but please keep the HP bar the same size as the power bar, since these bars are equally important to my character as a conjurer
  • HP bar changes color for each 25% (green, yellow, orange, red)

Player Window:
  • Window is not resizable
  • Bottom-row icon explanation, from left to right: in-battle (16px) - poison (18px) - trauma (18px) - elemental (18px) - arcane (18px) - PvP (16px)
  • Status effect icons are click-to-cure

Pet Window:
  • No pet window icons!! NONE!
  • No level indicator or con indicator
  • Otherwise, just like Target & Implied, as described below

Target & Implied Target Windows:
  • "Con" info (solo, epic, heroic, ^, ^^, ^^^) is displayed in the center of the HP / Power bars
  • ***** If PC, instead of "con," subclass info is displayed (templar, necromancer, and so on)
  • Integrated spell effects like in default window, except they are 10x10px icons that are 10 icons long, and up to 3 icons tall
  • Window can be resized vertically so no icons show, but can't be resized horizontally
  • ***** If it is easy to do, instead of disallowing horizontal resize, the icons instead flow to the right if the window is squished vertically but stretched horizontally. But I expect this is complex, so feel free to just ignore this line and make it so you can't resize it horizontally.
  • Level indicator in upper right

Group Window:
  • HP & Power bars are 50x5 instead of 100x10 (half as big). The bars are separated from each other by 1px padding, and have 1px padding around both of them and 1px gold border around that
  • Window border has 5px padding all the way around
  • Archetype icon is displayed (to integrate more smoothly with raid window)
  • Window is horizontally resizable, and player name is the "buffer" (can be squished down to the point it isn't visible)
  • Window is not vertically resizable
  • Status icons are 15x15 px and are click-to-cure

Raid Window:
(Based loosely off of this mod)
  • Each raid group can be "collapsed" with "+" icon in upper-right (so you can close the group you are in, and have the click-to-cure ability for your group)
  • Window can be resized horizontally, using name as a "buffer," and can stretch to allow the collapse icon to be far off to the right.
  • Each group in the raid has the same border properties of the group window (5px padding, 1px gold border)

If there is anything else I should explain, please let me know.

The pictures show what the windows look like with and without borders, and what they look like when stretched / squished.

Thanks a TON in advance for any help you can give!

PS--I have attached more graphics to help with clarity. The first graphic remains, since the color is slightly wrong on all these other graphics.

Each graphic shows the window WITH and WITHOUT borders.
Each graphic also shows the same window in different sizes, with both the maximum and minimum sizes being displayed (as well as at least one intermediate size).

I don't know exactly how to beg for this, but I know that I can't quite figure out this XML thing, try as I might.

I'm going to try to keep at it, but can anyone else do this mod? Most parts of it seem really simple, and I'd be happy I had even half of it.
