Btex (for 'Bottom TEXture') is a very lightweight addon for World Of Warcraft providing Background texture at the bottom of the screen. It contains a package of unique skins, a simple to use menu for settings skins, texture height and trancparency. All skins are compatible with Xart(Ace) and ElectrofluxTextronator(Ace). I choose to do it like xArt so that any textures made for xArt or ElectrofluxTextronator can be easily used for BTEX2 as well.

What can it do? :
-----------------
- Put a texture of your choice on the bottom of the screen via menu options (use /bx menu or /btex menu),
- Set height of your texture,
- Use any other TGA alpha channeled texture from other addon like Xart or ElectrofluxTextronator, or any other "pack" of skin,
- Work in any resolution (1920x1200 is max),
- Set transparency for any background texture or frame,
- Low memory usage.

FAQ :
-----
How do I run menu config ?  type "/bx Menu" or "/Btex menu" in the chat windows.

Why the download is so big ? it's because it contain many images.

Do the old XART skins work with BTEX? yes, just put them in the skins directory, and use the "custom texture" options on the dropdown menu.

Do the skin support alpha channel TGA? yes, and you can change the transparency of the bottom frame as well.

Can i use BLP file? not for now. buf if needed, i can add this, just let me know.

How can i add my own skin ? just put it in the /skins directory and choose "Load Custom" from the dropdown menu in game.
then follow insctructions. you can add all Xart texture compliant (512x256 pixel)x4, or make your own with Gimp or photoshop (they have to be TGA aplha channeled).
