@ Colby - I've tried nUI myself, I wasn't a fan. Mostly for the same reason that I didn't like SpartanUI. Spartan was the prettier of the two while nUI had more configuration options, but at the end of they day they were both designed by people that have a different idea of how a UI should be laid out than myself.

@ Cross - I'm just going to echo what others have said and suggest you take a shot at designing your own. You certainly don't need to go as crazy as Sewell and create custom art in photoshop or anything like that. Just take the sentence "It bugs me how _____ is laid out" and fill in the blank, then download one or two addons to try to fix those problems. You can create a fairly tidy interface with little more than some Unit Frames, a bar mod and a minimap. The more you play with things and get a feel for thew way you want it, then you can jump into a full UI overhaul and make something truly personal and unique. Start small, though. One addon at a time.
