This looks better than current CA UI. Which is incredible because I doubt he spent more than 30min on that.

Re: GUI suggestion
making a mock up in PS/Gimp does not equal a working GUI
Re: GUI suggestion
The problem is, there are a lot of different things that show information to the player. The developers are working on a new GUI, and it looks amazing from what I've seen (although thats not saying much as my computer has been out of commission for a while and I haven't been able to actually test it out)
The fixed GUI you proposed is nice, but there are a few elements on there that take up too much space. The console imo should be hidden at the top, and show only when messages come up. Likewise the unit commands/build orders should be hidden from view until needed.
Anyway, the point is that a new GUI is on the way, and will be much nicer than the present one. In the meantime, have you tried iceui or lolui?

Re: GUI suggestion

Re: GUI suggestion
It is already out, but not complete. Once skinning gets implemented, I think we can make cool fixed uis, too.
Re: GUI suggestion
It's included in the current CA test revision.
