Troll UI Query

So hey, I'm (thinking of) working on a custom Jungle Troll User Interface for my project. Now I have a pretty good knowledge of Troll customs and... 'preferences', but I was wondering if I could get the intarwebz take on it.

Also of note, I have basically little/no image-editing programs (Paint, anyone?), so anything I do will be really basic. I don't really need it, so I won't make it a [Request], but if anyone is bored or feeling helpful... That'd be cool, too :P.

Anyway, since they basically replace the Orc race (only way to get a UI to work effectively?), I was thinking of sticking with some of the original Orc UI stuff; mainly this:

Also, however, I wanted to capture a bit of the 'jungle/forest' feel with the Night Elves border-thingy:

(Vines would be best, but hey, I'm working with what I got.)

So can anyone help me out here? What would go well? And is there anything in the MPQ's that I could draw from to put in there?

So... No one has any thoughts? Any one of those 22 viewers? Erg...

Nope, but my input is that the Night Elf leaves are simply not going to work. You don't find leaves like that in a forest where you find Trolls.

Well, unless you were planning on making forest trolls, but since you mentioned vines I assume you meant Jungle Trolls.

Pasting things together from the different themes does not seem like a very good solution. Try to find an artist or try your hand at it yourself and just keep on with it until it looks good!

Ah, so 'no leaves'. Dangit.

Ok then, thanks for the input (not as in "end of topic", though :P)
