Oh boy, do I have a treat for you all this week. Laar is our UI subject this week, and I was immediately impressed with not only Laar's courageousness to tri-spec for a heroic raiding guild but at the ease with which the World of Warcraft user interface turns on a dime. No other MMO UI out there can transform itself so quickly to become something utterly new from spec to spec. Going tri-spec is daunting. I don't know if that's the type of dedication my brain can handle these days. College, maybe. Back then, I could multitask. Now I'm an old, sad man. Don't let my shame and sadness get you down. Let's take a look at this awesome UI!

    Each week, WoW Insider and Mathew McCurley bring you a fresh look at reader-submitted UIs as well as Addon Spotlight, which spotlights the latest user interface addons.

With many players getting ready to return to the World of Warcraft when the newest patch Hour of Twilight hits the deck, I thought it might be good to look at some more bare-bones approaches to user interfaces since setting up a whole new UI, especially after being gone for a while, can be daunting. A good friend of mine recently started playing his death knight again after a long time being absent and asked me what addons he needed. As my smile quickly turned into a serious, broad line and my lips lost all sense of joviality, I realized that one of my best friends hasn't been reading my columns. Tsk. Anyway, today we're taking a look at Aeide's user interface, built from the ground up with love and care. Aeide is a PVE player exclusively, with a penchant for pushing everything to the bottom of the screen and keeping the middle and top as clear and clean as possible, much to my own heart. With some simple kgPanel work and some minimal planning, you too can space out your addons and give them clear little borders to live within. Any UI that promotes addon segregation is one step ahead in my book.

    The Daily Quest brings you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere. Today we bring you a special Druid edition of TDQ. Foofy of Foofy's CupCake Factory posts part two of her Intro To Moonkin Raiding videos. Whereas last time she talked about the stats you should be gearing with, this time she explains spell rotations in different situations. The Twisted Nether podcast has posted their latest recording with special guest Phaelia of Resto4Life. Phaelia talks about her influential site and why she is taking a break from it. Karthis from Of Teeth and Claws has posted both his Bear Tank and Feral Cat UIs and has listed all the AddOns he uses with each. Flyv loves the DPS increase he sees in Cat form with all the raid buffs he gets. He posts a list of resources on where to learn more about raid buff stacking and an AddOn that tracks raid debuffs. Rawrbitchrawr, the Druid-centric podcasters, are giving away 60-day WoW pre-paid cards. Head to their site to read up on the rules.
