wowinterface and curse both have interface compilation sections. We also have the UI Compilation forum.

It's not very hard to change a UI around though. Open each addon's menu and you can basically scale down/move anything.

Once you figure out how to get the config menu up (usually just /[modname] config or menu) and find scaling options its easy enough from there, and some mods even have buttons on thier bottom corners to scale them, such as omen or recount.

all in all, once you fiddle around with the UI config menus, you can make them to look however you would like, weather it be big, small, wide skinny etc.

As wraith said, have a look at our UI compilation section, there is a few up there for many resolitions, even limited laptop ones like mine.

anyway, a few links are

TANKSPOT UI Compilations


WOWINTERFACE UI Compilations


And have you tried playing around with a few different resoutions?

This is my DK Tanking UI, with panic buttons in the middle. If you'd like I'm happy to upload the addon and wtf folders.

You would need to change your res to run it, you asked for one at 1280x1024, the one he uses is 1920x1200... So you either have to change that one all around with scaling or change your res

For symmetry I can see why you'd put the minimap in the midle, but in terms of what I prioritise, and information hierarchy, it's a total waste. Whatever UI you use make sure it has the information you need, in the place you'd expect.

I see designing a UI as an art sort of thing, not just for practicality, besides, I press my buttons, not click them

(1) great site on UI is nostockui
(2) video of my own UI is below. It's annotated. It might give you some ideas of what to look for in a UI, ie. you can take someone else's but how do you know what you're missing?
