centerFile:Http://thejoats.com/wow/psimple.jpgcenter psimple is my addon collection. My main goal is to add more functionality, while keeping the UI uncluttered and sexy. A lot of the addons work behind the scenes, while the things that are on screen are very sleek. I am constantly updating the addons when updates are available, as well as adding new ones as I deem necessary. Right now the only thing missing for hardcore WoW players is a good raid mod. I don't have any high level characters, so I do not use a raid mod at this time. So eventually when I get irritated during raids, there will be one present :) As far issues, BibMod is extremely buggy and will function strangely and uniquely for everyone. The basics(moveable windows, bar setup, bag setup, etc) are amazing and I couldn't do without. However, temporary enchant buffs cause problems, and the minimap can get messed up. I have added a couple of addons to compensate for this.

List of addons as of 10/06/05:

-AlphaMap

   Great addon to allow a seperate map to be transparent so you can run around and see where you are going with the map up.
   /am to set the options. It will require tweaking to get it centered and to add gatherer and mapnotes icons.

-Atlas

   All the instances mapped out in this addon. (Hit the button on the minimap)

-Auctioneer

   This works in conjuction with LootLink to keep track of auction prices and put them in item tooltips to give you an idea of the 
   going rate on the AH of the said item.

-bags_and_merchants

   I know a lot of people like to use addons to combine all bags into one big bag, but I like the seperate bags to organize things.
   This mod helps out by opening all bags(instead of just backpack) automatically when you go to a merchant, bank, AH, or a trade.

-BibBags

   Bag modification for BibMod.

-BibCore

   BibMod is the skeleton of the UI. It changes everything and gets rid of the hideously oversized and ugly default look to the WoW UI.
   There is a main Bib menu that will let you set everything up. Turns off main menu bar, bag bar, hides backgrounds, tooltip anchor, etc.
   Hit the yellow button to fold the menu.

-BibToolbars

   Toolbar modification for BibMod. Hit the red arrow button to set the bars to your liking(or to hid the unneeded ones.).

-BibWindowMods

   Window modification for BibMod. (Makes just about everything moveable)

-BuffTimers

   Shows actual time remaining on buffs. *NOTE: I am investigating if this is redundant for my UI(between my buff addon and Bib itself).
   This may be removed soon.

-CharactersViewer

   This will let you see the character info and inventory of your alts. Go to keybindings and set a key to it. *NOTE: You must log in
   atleast once per alt.

-CleanMinimap

   The name says it all, a much cleaner minimap with some customizability options. I only really even use this because of the BibMod 
   minimap issues.

-EnhTooltip

   Required by other addons to display info better in tooltips.

-EzDismount

   Multifunctional to make you less irrate with certain actions/abilities. For example, if you are gathering herbs or ore and you need to
   attack or cast a spell, you won't just sit there. It will cancel your node action and you can go on. You will have to hit your desired
   action twice to get it off, but better than not doing it. Also will break shapeshift forms automatically when you talk to an NPC(again
   do it twice).

-Gatherer

   This will remember where you find a resource node and put it on your map and minimap. Amazingly effective.

-goodinspect

   Allows you to inspect anyone within normal target range. Set a key in the key bindings option('I' works great). This is a horribly
   outdated addon, but still works with no problems(whereas other addons of this type I could not get to function properly).

-HitsMode

   A much much nicer combat log display. Try setting Mode C in the options. (/hm to set options)

-LootLink

   Keeps track of EVERY item you come across(in any way.. auction house, linked in guild, chat, spam, etc. Also, just clicking on a player
   will automatically add their equipment to your LootLink.)

-MapNotes

   Highly useful tool for keeping track of where things are. Double click on the main map to add a note about the area.

-MiniGroup

   Replaces player, target, pet, and party frames with much smaller, neater windows. Highly configureable. (Hit the MG icon on the minimap)

-MobInfo2

   Shows a lot of information about a mob on mouseover. Health, mob type, class of mob, type of loot dropped, value of loot, etc.

-QuestHistory

   Keeps a log of all quests you have accepted(and ones you abandon for easy retaking). Bind a key to this.

-QuickLoot

   The classic addon. It may take time to get used to it if you have never used it. Everytime a loot window pops up, it centers the first
   item on your mouse for easy pickup. It also moves to the next item in the loot window after you take one. So you can spam click to
   get all loot.

-ReagentData

   A database of crafting reagents.

-ReagentInfo

   Works with ReagentData to tell you in tooltip which profession uses a particular item. Very useful for not selling items to NPC if you
   have alt crafters or want to sell on AH.

-SatrinaBuffFrame

   Very nice active buff/temp enchantment management. This is to compensate for Bib's failures with Shaman self buffs in particular.
   Also a very clever way to configure. Right click on your player frame and hit Addon Config - Satrina.. Now you can move the windows
   around and orient them whichever way you want.

-SimpleQuestLevel

   Simply displays a numeric value for quests in your logbook.

-Titan

   Highly popular addon that adds a bar across the top(or bottom if you want) of the screen to show vital information. There are tons of
   plugins for this mod(most of them fairly pointless).

-TitanEmoteMenu

   Plugin for Titan that is a great menu for emoting quickly. Right click on the Titan bar and select this to have access to it.

-TitanGuild

   By far the most useful plugin for Titan, imho. Shows how many people are on in your guild as well as the list of people on mouseover.
   Same routine with EmoteMenu, click on the Titan bar.
