If we had one of these.. it's long gone, so thought I'd start a new one since I just redid my UI. Here's my current UI in both healing and shadow modes.

Any chance we can add what your generally using? I know the list is probably long but I'm just looking for ballpark.

Current UI.
Hoping its one of the last screenshots I take, canceled account is in effect!
Sleek and minimalistic is the name of the game here.
I posted up in the thread you started what I use with some SS of them.Quote:

Allara has so many empty slots in his inventory!
HAHAHAA - Kak said Allara's UI is a cluster fuck....oooooh--this will anger the Gods!! LOL :smile:
I'm still tweaking mine after the overhaul last weekend. Going to move a few more status bars around, but it's getting there; I'll post an updated shot from the raid tonight to show the current evolution.
Agree with Ain. Please post up some of the UI names you use with the pictures. I find it's helpful if for no more then to jog my memory when i'm messing around with ui changes. =)
My little work in progress. I like it, but I don't know that I'm entirely satisfied with it yet. And I think I have too many addons running (you can't see most of them luckily). Anyways it looks more cluttered up when raiding, but since I haven't raided yet with it, I can't really post a shot now can I? :D
Join AV and you can take more PiX of nakedness!
Example of how my gui looks while idling in dalaran. Also included a screenshot of how it looks with 25 raid frames.
Resurrecting from the dead as I think my new UI is pretty damned nifty! Can't figure out how to show my keybinds though :(
Beelze: I like! Clean, minimalist, plenty of extra screen space.
Here is mine. I decided I'd do a complete overhaul after I activated the dr00d again.
Obviously, this is my rogue, but you get the idea.

I've been asked to share information about my UI. My post earlier in this thread was quite out of date, so I'm starting a new one. I'll add in-raid screenshots to this later. For now, here's out of combat.
Here's a list of the add-ons I use along with a brief description. Hope it helps widen your horizons when it comes to add-ons!
Quote:
- _NPCScan and _NPCScan.Overlay - Recently featured on MMO Champion, these add-ons continuously scan for rare NPCs in the world around you and pop up a notification when you find one.

- BugSack - My choice for best Lua error capturer. Includes an LDB feed.
- ButtonFacade and ButtonFacade_Apathy - Skin for all buttons. Apathy is my choice of skin at the moment.

- Carbonite - Questing/leveling add-on, I only turn this on for alts.
- Chatter - Chat add-on.

- Clique - I use this to add a Shift+Click action to all unit frames which casts Misdirect.

- Deadly Boss Mods - You should know this well. I'm thinking of trying out DXE at some point.

- MagicTargets RL - Summary of all raid targets along with how many players are targeting them.
- MikScrollingBattleText - I only use a few features from this, mainly rep gain, loot, in/out of combat, etc. I don't use the combat text anymore, it was pointless. This add-on also generates a huge KILL SHOT! warning when my target is in execute range.

- Overachiever - All kinds of achievement enhancements, I highly recommend this if you like achievements.
- PallyPower - Only turned on for my paladin.
- Pawn - Gives all gear a score based on a user-defined set of weights. Used for snap judgements on gear upgrades when the spreadsheet isn't handy.
- Pitbull4 - Unit frame add-on. This is the most fully-featured, fully-configurable, optimized unit frame in existence.
- PowerAuras - Adds proc effects to my screen when my trinkets go off.
- QuestGuru - Quest log replacement, quest tracker replacement, tracks your quest history.
- RaidComp RL - With one click I can see exactly which buffs/debuffs we have available in the current raid. I can see which classes and specs would provide missing ones, create hypothetical raids, etc.

- RedRange - Turns your buttons red when out of range, or blue when out of mana.
- Routes - Combine with Gatherer for ultra-efficient gathering.
- Scorchio RL - Tracks Scorch and Torment the Weak effects on my current target. Can do more for mages, but I only use those features.
- Skada - Damage meter, etc. Better and more lightweight than Recount. Can have multiple windows up simultaneously, this is how I can monitor DPS and healing all at once.
- SLDataText - Most of the text on-screen comes from this. Mail, zone, guild, friends, etc.
- SpeedyActions - Skills will fire when you press the key down, instead of releasing the key.
- tekKompare - The item comparison tooltip will always be on with this add-on.

- Track-o-Matique - Fixes my tracking for max DPS.
- TweakWoW - Exposes lots of hidden configuration options in WoW.
- Utopia RL - Mostly used to track debuffs on bosses, I turned that part off. Utopia tells me when any player in the raid changes specs. Also adds who casted a buff to the buff tooltip, shows the amount of improvement through talents, and whether the buff is max rank or not. Utopia also records every fight in detail, and provides a graphical display of the fight afterwards, which highlights important moments such as deaths, Heroism, rebirths, etc. Tracks aura uptimes during combat, etc.
- XLoot RL - Loot/roll window replacement, makes it very pretty and functional. This is how I link boss loot after a kill.
You make me feel inadequet. I'm definately gonna DL some of those next time I'm at my pooter though...

Looks like it shows buffs/debuffs or am I missing something?
Correct. The trick is, and many people don't know this: you can create as many "groups" of buffs/debuffs as you want. You can set those groups to show any collection of buffs/debuffs, put them anywhere on the screen, make them look however you want, etc.
I will try to get some raid shots up later next week as we do some 25s, to show you exactly what I mean.
Take Hodir -- ElkBuffBars (EBB) is almost entirely the reason I topped the meters last week on that.
I have set up a few of these addons so far. Thank you for the list. The following is what I'm currently using.
Buffenough
chatter
forteexorcist
powerauras
skada
timetodie
Omen
DBM
Ora2
Still need to set up an action bar modifier that I like. Tried bartender and didn't really like it. Probably try pitbull at some point but one step at a time.
Only thing that I'm missing and really want to include is an addon that that I can set up to alert me when my Improved Shadow Bolt debuff (Shadow Mastery) is not on the target. Forte shows it with a dot timer but I want an announcement that flashes in the middle of my screen. I only have to worry about it during my execute phase (below 30%) when I stop using shadowbolt as a filler, but still need to cast it every 30 seconds to reapply SM. Anyone have any ideas?
