My favorite is the hunter-optimized caelUI. Check it out.

That looks awesome. I didn't much care about UI addons until I started playing on a large screen and found that having centralized hotkeys = happier wrists; now I use bartender4, which has pretty much alleviated the problem...

Does LUI provide the ability to add hotbars that are not needed by regular or special forms? That's the only small gripe I have with bartender.

I'm not quite sure, but if Bartender doesn't support it then LUI doesn't. It IS possible to replace Bartender with another bar-addon, though, so you could always try that.

I also exist on DeviantArt.

It's not a big problem - at the moment the 6 normal bars plus hotbar 10 seem to work as an all purpose profile (originally I'd tried using 1-5, 7 and 9, which made a real mess of things when I rolled a druid...)

That's odd. Did you left-click the cogwheel in the top right?

I use the Supervillan UI---> http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/i ... ainUI.html

you can set how many bars you want up in the bar options, very nice and fun UI, though its not a addon you have to delete EVERYTHING in your old UI folder. and when you update you have to do the same thing, bit more work to install but i feel its worth it :)

Though i need to try that one out Saturo, that UI looks awsome.

I use Bartender with a smattering of some other addons to make a "custom" UI. It's about as attractive as it sounds, but it works for me. My friend always wonders how I can see the screen at all, but I don't usually have any trouble.

Kiwi! Hi, Kiwi!
It doesn't look any different here, I just like this screenshot.

I use SexyMap, DCoords, Quartz, Omen, no Recount for me because I know I suck, aaaand Squidframes. Tidyplates and AtlasLoot and DBM too, and probably a bunch more that I'm missing.

Some of these are very very nice indeed, but nine times out of ten I find that the buttons are too small for my puny gamer-dad-is-ashamed-of-me mouseclicking skills. :( I'd love a shiny UI, but I'm so dense when it comes to messing with things.

I use SpartanUI... original I believe. Though I had a friend modify mine so that it was all purple. Very very purple. I don't use the spartan party frame, grid is neater. Don't use player buffs/debuffs as SBF is once again, neater. Toss in SCT, cooldown timers, Quartz and Paranoia. I've tried to keep it as uncluttered as possible. I'd get rid of Paranoia maybe but I like that it'll pick up hordies I might not have noticed.

Depends what you want, there are nice packs like SpartanUI and such. I have about 32 addons in total and OK! My UI isn't oh-so-amazing, but it keeps me happy :) Then again I never liked a UI to tell me where things need to go D: I always like moving things from time to time :3

I have two. I have the one I made (that i have to remake <shakes fist as reinstalling WoW and HDD death>)

This is the one I made.

Lately, I have been using RealUI (felt lazy) and honestly, it is amazing. Clean, simple and no clutter.

I would link the UI, but wow-interface is blocked at work

But not petopia. I work IT, and oddly enough, my boss plays a hunter >>;
