   Need to refine my layout - I want the cooldown timer for my group

   I love a minimalist view/layout.

   My biggest hurdle right now is getting bars/countdown timers for major cd's.
   Right now with druids I'm looking at their 3 minute DPS burst (Celestial Alignment) and their rez (Rebirth).
   I think Weakauras is the go to for this but.. if there is a easy copy/pasta someone has of one built, that would be lovely.

   I'd also like to get rid of looking at my health on the top left of the screens and have it and the target more in the middle, and get rid of all the fluff. I just need a chunky health bar for both with nothing on it.... (maybe debuffs is fine).

   Oh ya, also want a square map. The addon linked in 2014 is no longer valid.

   Is there anything to make chat look better or get a bigger area for it without it feeling like it's taking up too much space?

   Well... all of this is preference as to which specific addons you choose to use and which look and feel the best to you since there are a plethora that could be used for these changes, but I've made changes to mine in the same areas.

   Here's what I'm using:
   

   - Shadowed unit frames for party/target frames, I removed the player frame since the party frame is more important and covers that too
   - Chatter for a modified chat box, completely customisable in size color, fonts, etc.
   -Ora3 (bottom right) to track party/raid cooldowns.
   -Sexy map for a better looking minimap, also has square ones.
   Bartender to remove all the action bars

   Again, not the only addons you could choose, but might give you some idea at least.

   This is sorta my setup. I have a place for individual procs that I track via Weak Auras (bottom right panel) and then I have viewers through ISBoxer that let me track when those are up (I'm not sure how to capture a screenshot with the viewer's in it yet, but working on it)

   All in all though, it works pretty well for me (I'm running Prot Paladin, Frost Mage, Fire Mage, Arcane Mage, and Resto Shaman).

   You could probably do something similar to show when BRez's are available, etc.

   Good luck!
