Good choice.

Not sure about the 5 big buttons. Imo that should be 6. Not sure if I would care about a fixed actionbutton background on the top row anyway. I think just putting some stuff in the background (chains) may be enough so people can overlay it with any bar they want.

Another more important part. Is your texture a sprite? Means does it contain all parts you are using in the interface? This could come in very handy when re-theming the textures. You would only need to swap one file and everything is changed. Working with sprites is not that hard. All you need is to add specific SetTexCoord() coordinates for each texture. Afaik you can work with 1024x1024 texture files atm. That should be enough space for everything. I think even 2048x2048 is possible.
