What are you asking?

If you want to modify the UI textures then you import your custom ones over the existing UI textures. The UI textures are at certain paths in the main mpq archive files.

Sadly it is not possible in WC3 to re-arrange the UI to be more like StarCraft/StarCraft II. The feature to customize UI layout was only added to StarCraft II.
 
DSG go bug Blizzard to add better control over the UI layout in WC3. I'm sure you definitely could find a way to achieve this. =P

Edit: @DSG - Make sure to also tell them not to touch the JASS and/or GUI unless they're translating more JASS to GUI without the extra BJ. It was almost the end of the world in 2009.


Though yeah as a second voice of opinion, DSG is correct if that is what your looking for.

UI is simply a set of pictures (textures) that are painted over the game.
In WC3, the pictures are stored in "UI/Console/Human/HumanUITile01.blp" ("Human" can be replaced by the other races.)

Some people like to use other UI than the regular 4 UI sets that come with WC3.
Those people make their own UI. They just make a picture and you have to import that picture to "UI/Console/" folder to replace the normal UI.

However, you can't change the location of anything (inventory, command buttons, minimap, menu options, resource slots, time of day cycle, etc, etc, etc.)
