First of all thanks for a great module!

When doing a friend request a pop-up field appears much like Facebook. This field has by default a big black border which is not so good looking. A better looking one is using for example.

#user_relationships_popup_form { border: 1px solid gray; }

Further on the animations doesn't look so good. The slidedown and loader thingy's is bit ugly. Why not use the fadeIn and fadeOut of jQuery. Simple and smooth. I did some changes in user_relationships_ui changing slideDown and slideUp to fadeIn and fadeOut and removed the loading bar animation which isn't really necessary for such a small loading element, basically I think in k:s the bar takes more than the actual form and it's not so beautiful.

// Javascript for user_relationships_ui.module

// Creating our own namespace for the module
Drupal.user_relationships_ui = {};

if (Drupal.jsEnabled) {
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Any links that we have created in the ui module are
    // Given a click handler so you can display the popup correctly
    $('a.user_relationships_popup_link').click(function(e) {
      var buttoncode = e.which ? e.which : e.button; // msie specific checks does not support e.which
      // If position is fixed, allow for %'s.
      position = Drupal.settings.user_relationships_ui.position.position;
      left = Drupal.settings.user_relationships_ui.position.left;
      xtop = Drupal.settings.user_relationships_ui.position.top;
      
      if(position == "fixed") {
        // If left is defined in a % (.5) calculate left requirement
        if(left <= 1) {
          // Window width * desired - UI width
          left = Math.round(($(window).width()*left) - ($("#user_relationships_popup_form").width()/2));
        }

Thanks, but I think that slide/fade is a question of style and one is not necessarily better than the other. Same for the black bar. You should be able to override both JS and CSS in your theme, without tweaking UR itself.
