I think something more along the line of this:

would be better, as you can't really distinguish the shields from armor from hull in the current design. We have all been used to the "left to right" design for many years now, and the new design seems to include a topright to topleft to bottom flow of things. It also shows the effects icons (which would negate the need for icons in the overview window, freeing up more space). If it's not visible enough, the hp bars and effect icons could have increased radii/width.

Thoughts?

edit: if someone likes this and has good adobe skills, go ahead and supply a better example.

I like the effect icons. That would be sweet in IDing who is doing what.

As for the HP bars... people will get used to them within a week or so. Just watch where the red starts and go from there (it moves in the same direction as the module cycle lines move).
