@WabbitTwaks - Very glad to hear it! I will release more inventory screens and button options in the next release along with a enhanced record screen and much more.
@Magevil Lovely selection. Though, the dragon mosaic resembles more an sahuagin wanting to knuddle a drowning person I think. If it really *is* a sahuagin then I'd suggest to replace the Bhaal icon with the ship icon from the Sword Coast inventory background. Immersion an all that. Anyway, that scaled fella is gonna be my favourite!
As I already mentioned I'll be using the bronze icons. My only nitpick with the bronze set is that all button boders are still bright golden, which creates a certain feeling of inharmoniousness.
Edit: Silly me for not refreshing the page before posting. Thanks, I'll be eagerly awaiting the next update!
@kamigoroshi - "bronze set is that all button boders are still bright golden" what buttons are you looking at? they are far from golden....I'm confused?
@Magevil Sorry, looks like I wasn't specific enough. What I meant weren't the retextured bronze icons themselves, but instead the bright golden borders of the menu buttons. Like the Journal's Quest/Done Quests/Journal/User, or the Save/Load/Delete ones for example.
Ah ok, now I understand. Yeah, I agree its something I have plans for on the next release. Thanks for the feedback. Hoping to make a complete gold and bronze gui.
Great job! Just few advices: 1) Skull from starting menu is too sharp for me. You needlessly changed it imo. The defaut one looks OK. 2) In journal as far as i remember (i'm in work now) the brown background is a bit more saturated than in rest tabs, and it give a bit too much contrast between yellow journal.
That's what i remember from what i checked this morning. Maybe later i will remind myself about something else.
EDIT: The same "problem" with journal goes with map, mage books and cleric scroll (different brown tone). Also character sheet goes with another one brown tone. Can you make all brown backgrounds looks the same? Like in inventory screen.
ok this is fantastic ! For the moment I'm gonna stick to the gold icons with the Sword Coast Mozaic, I love it !!
Little feedback though :
- when you inspect an item, the background is still the blueish default one - when you are browsing spells (divine or profane) the background of the number correspondind to the level of the Spell page is the default one as well (can't say if this will be possible to change it) - when you save a game, there is still a little window with the default color
Other than this you're pretty much done with your mod !
I plan to go over all the screens individually and give them the same care I did with the inventory screen. I will also be tweaking and refining the inventory screen moving forward. This is still an early BETA stage.
@Magevil : no worries, it's normal to give you feedback, after all you make us enjoy the game more with your work ! don't forget to enjoy it as well =p
@Freche@mirko008 - Its not available anymore. sorry. Maybe in a future release.
Thats too bad. The new layout is too different for me. It doesn't feel right (too much empty space I think, the old one sure isn't better on that but it's not as apparent) Also not a big fan of the overlapping slots
@Freche ARGH! Now that you have pointed the slot overlap out, I cannot take my eyes off it! lol.
@Magevil Any chance you might be adjusting that out in a future release? Edit: Never mind, silly me should take my own advice and read all the posts. lol

Simply fantastic work. I love it. I especially love options! That is so great!
My favorites are the Gold buttons with the Sword Coast mosaic. It all looks awesome in scaled and non-scaled.
I am using the Gold buttons and the plain inventory screen. The others are very nice too.
thank you very much for your hard work. Now go play the game and stop working!

Ideas :
- would it be possible to add a inentory mosaic with the BG Skull as a base ?
- I find the skull in the menu too yellow burnished, anyway to make it feel like bones ? (like in this one http://www.csicon.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/baldurs-gate-throne-of-bahaal-3535.jpg)

I am using bronze one. It really blends in nicely and is not distracting.
But I would also like classic inventory option (http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/4682/baldr066.jpg)

Everyone like different things, and it will be impossible to please everyone.
Just giving my thoughts about it.

I made the borders thinner and touched up a few other things.
