People have posted screenshots of the classic UI they're aiming to emulate, but I think you'll just have to wait to see their matching final product.

Really it shouldn't impact your decision at all though: I believe the new UI will be functionally similar to the current Velious beta UI (eg. it will have 6 buttons only), it just will look more classic (eg. the buttons will have that classic off-white color).

I suppose i will reserve judgement until i see this new UI. Hopefully it will be able to curb this headache..,

This is the only thing I've seen about the one being developed. It looks a lot cleaner, IMO. But it's still pretty close to what we have now in the Beta.

If you hate the current UI for any reason other than aesthetics, you'll hate the upcoming version as well. Its functions are not being seriously altered; you're not going to get multiple hotkey windows/etc back. It's mainly an appearance clean-up to make it look more like the original velious interface. It does a pretty good job of accomplishing that goal within the (massive) constraints imposed by the Titanium client. Having been using the new version for a week or so now I've grown rather fond of it.

Note that the original Velious/Trilogy UI that the P99 version is based on allowed (most) windows to be moved around as well. Some like the bank window could not be moved in the original game, but that's not something anyone's likely to mind.

Green beta does not appear to be currently forcing a UI check beyond checking for a UI called 'velious' in the UI folder.

Folks worried about resolution limits are worried about nothing. The P99 admins specifically recommended some windows be made larger than their 2001 sizes so as to maintain good readability on modern resolutions.
