Well designed UI
Today while browsing the UI forums i stumbled upon a UI that drew my attention.
It’s a very clean and simple UI but still manages to not have to sacrifice any funtionality.
The UI is made/maintained by a person known as Metz. A name i havn’t seen before in terms of UI’s. However this version of his UI is labeled as Metz UI as 3.0 so therefore isn’t his first. and even after doing some research i couldn’t find any versions of his UI before 2.8 .
Another reason that i like this UI is it’s resolution , being 1280×1024. Not that this is my native resolution but i feel a smaller resolution opens up alot of options in terms of reaching more people and making your UI more accesable. That being said though 22″ monitors seem to have the standard these days.
I’ve attached a screen or 2 showing the UI in action aswell as the Download link. Also i’ve added the original forum post so that you can read up on feedback or possibly reach him if you need to.
Hi there, only just noticed this blog on my incoming link, but thought I’ll give you a bit more background on Metz. He started helping others on GPForums early this year, and so far have actually released a few UI’s. Most of the pre 2.8 links aren’t working anymore, but from the screenshots you should be able to tell how his UI has changed.

Anything else you’ll have to ask him, all I do is provide webspace so he can put all his UI packages in one location
