PillowShout	I'm really liking the new UI you showed on tumblr (finally, a fucking health bar!), but I noticed that there was quite a bit of blank space, so I figured I'd toss together some quick suggestions on how we could use it. 1. Showing status effects. Knowing when our character is starving or even just really horny could definitely help us to take care of them better. I've lost count of the number of times my character starved to death just be cause I wasn't paying attention to my health, so being able to see at a glance that they're starving would be pretty damn helpful. 2. Showing relevant skills. This one would be a bit more contextual and would probably only be useful some of the time, but knowing, say, how good our character's sweet talking skill is when we're trying to convince an NPC to do something would not only act as a quick check of our chances, but also give new players a better idea of when certain skills are relevant. Additionally, you could also use this to show off skill increases as well. 3. Using the space to show info about the object that the cursor is over, rather than using messages. This not only give us more room to describe the object that we're checking out, but also lets status messages stay in the status area without being overwritten.
