Blizzard just said they are working to improve it. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/7Xz3bzm.png) What do you want them to change? Do you prefer a dark and cold design or more warm and colorfull? (Ideally post examples of UI designs that you like.) What features do you want them to add? To contribute to this, I made a design mockup, it's far from perfect but I think it gives a good idea of what the design could look if the composition was closer to the original one. Original ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/V0a0032.png) Currently on 1.18 PTR ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/EGW3dW6.png) My design ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/LDP7J4p.png) | ||

I'm honestly fine with the new PTR UI but I wouldn't mind if they shifted it around a bit to resemble the old battle.net UI like yours does. Why can't we just choose the skin? | ||

 Edit: Though if I may make one suggestion for a possible variation on your design -- Perhaps add some 3-dimensionality to the left side button-column, making them more block-like and similar in style to the original design. Not for nostalgia's sake, but more so because their clunky appearance together with that punching sound-effect that plays when you click them really makes for a sort of satisfying experience navigating through the various menus. | ||

It's simple, reminds me of the old one! Something I'd like to keep with the PTR UI though, is the red frames, green colour for "Join", "create" etc. I think it thematically should remain more BW than SC2, that details like that could be key for this. So I love the direction and how u set it all up. Throw in some more BW feeling and I'm 100% aboard! | ||

The one now is like the shitty screen you hit enter through to get to B.net or when that rare time you'd be using Hamachi CC or LAN play. Such a dark dark screen.. like you're hiding on some distant moon avoiding all war duties :D | ||

Social is not 100 % clear, especially if you have new players testing this interface. Is this the long waited facebook integration for bw? Buttons for Play, Training and Ladder? I am not sure if 3 buttons are necessary just to play the game (its not clear enough what training means) I would move the profile button below the social tab and it has to be discussed if a profile button is needed. Overall my excitement for the new interface (1.18) is gone, its definitely harder to go places. I like your design! | ||
