Was trying to fix my overview up some, i find in cluttered and hard to find what i need. Its a little overwhelming with so many settings. Anyone got a nice simple overview they would like to share?

Join the in-game chat channel SaraShawa-Overview and read the message-of-the-day (MOTD).

It ain't simple by any means, but it is the prettiest.

If you find that too busy (there are dozens of custom tabs that cab be loaded, so explore them), I use a very plain overview with a few optionally loadable tabs.

Place the contained YAML file in your folder: %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EVE\Overview

You can then select it in-game through the overview options, by specifying it by name (no need the .yaml suffix)

Definitely this.

Also, for future reference, look for your overview file on your hard drive (it's a .yaml type file nowadays) to keep a personal back up copy of your overview settings not saved on the server. Windows 7 users will find it here...

C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\EVE\Overview (where "USERNAME" is the name of the user's directory)

It should likely be in similar locations on other OS', and that folder is where Eve maintains all exported overview files. Good to keep in case you ever need to reinstall your OS or Eve or both so you don't have to start over if you do.
