7.5/10 Nicely done. I don't particularly like the large border at the top, but if it is to your liking, nice.  | I'll rate this as a 9/10 its pretty clean 
Also I would like to ask u if u can upload your UI?<3
Would be nice.
Signed, Elff.

the new UI i am gonna be experimenting with Vuhdo as well with keeping grid though i seem to like grid  | 7.5/10
looks like you have a lot of different raid health monitors ( I count 3)... Seems a bit redundant to me. Other than that though it looks rather clean 
Still trying to decide on the exact placement of recount and omen.
Missing from this screen shot is grid which is placed right above omen

For anyone who's wondering where their post went:
I deleted it as I said in the OP because you just posted your UI and didn't rate the last UI.

7/10 Rating one above Blood's response.
Hard to judge without a raid shot imo, I like the player portraits and the button skin you have. The yellow numbers seem rather large. Overall clean look. Nice job.
Here's mine: |

@ Bodasafa - 7/10. I understand some people like the viewport style, but if you're going to do that, close off the sides at the bottom. Not sure if I like the target model that you have at the top,center of the lower area. Great view of XT though... I need to get my camera scrolled out more often for things like that.
My rogue and DK UIs are very similar. 
In a raid group. 
Tanking H Nexus earlier tonight.
I normally don't show recount during bosses, since it's usually not something I care about during the encounter. I do my best to play as well as I can, and the numbers will show for themselves afterwards.
P.S. Long time lurker, first time poster.

That's my UI while dpsing Xt in a 25-man.
and I give the dk ui above me an 8 because I think you could make the recount scale bigger(easier to read) and still take up the same amount of space.

| | Source: Zxian  | 9/10 Really nice, everythings nice and neat, compact buttons, etc. Why do you have 2 cast bars though? Or am I missing something. Source: kingharbromm
If you shortened your health bars, could you bring them lower? You could tuck them nicely in the space between Omen & your chat box. Or is that reserved for an unseen addon?
Also, your combat text looks CRAZY! I'd put a filter or two on. I know you're not reading 90% of that stuff on there. My suggestion: Turn off healing & energy gains. Move damage to alternate left & right. Omen has a feature where it will replay the death time if you need to know what healing is or isn't being done. So, there's really no, IMHO, reason to have all that spam up there. | 
Made some stuff a little smaller, health bars shorter to fit into the unused space above buttons and Omen.

Oh dear lord... I don't even know where to start. 
For starters, scale down combattext, but most important CHANGE THE FONT, it looks hideous. And outline on the font in chatwindows? Zup with that...
Scale down or totally remove your actionsbars, makes up lots of space on your screen.

The top cast bar is what I'm doing, the bottom one is my target. Since I had myself targetted, it shows the same thing for both cast bars.

@ buttlern
9/10
very clean and minimalistic, I could never run with a UI like that but it is definitely visually appealing.
I assume Omen is next to your recount (otherwise having recount not be centered would be odd)
and because my last screen shot wasn't in a raid I'm posting it again. I tried to have everything possible showing in this screen shot... only thing missing is the small timer next to my action bars that displays the time remaining on bloodsurge (see my first post if you wish to see it), Also I generally don't run with the real-time graph running so you can pretty much ignore that. |

^^^ 5/10 - Simply way to much junk cluttering up the screen. Do you need both a DPS graph and chart? Nothing really seems to fit together.
Here is mine, PVE warrior tank. I use the same layout for my huntard and DK. |

7/10... seems a bit too cluttered, and I would change the font on your SCT too. Source: oakayam
Try HideLooted AddOn You could then use the space for Recount/Omen both of which you can set to show hide based on your combat status ( to save space ).
7/10 over all. I think your raid frames take too much space for a tanking setup. If you have a healing off spec then my bad . The tooltip over the combat log would bother me and the minimap buttons could be more organized ( you have oRA2 button attached to minimap and on your fubar/titan/LDB at top, tankadin button and backpack overlap )
10 man tanking - I was testing DXE along side of DBM at the time so I had both timers running :/ 
The gray panels are from IshtaraUi. | Any chance I could get an addon list/upload of your UI? Looks quite sweet, and I'd like it on my Protadin or Warrior-to-be
EDIT: Nevermind. Apparantly I'm blind @_@

@ krc 5.5/10 very cluttered in my eyes. I would start with reducing 'the wall' of Scrolling combat text in addition to changing its font as mentioned above. Source: Neglected
Any chance I could get an addon list/upload of your UI? Looks quite sweet, and I'd like it on my Protadin or Warrior-to-be 
EDIT: Nevermind. Apparantly I'm blind @_@ | Technically I have used only the panels from IshtaraUI. My res is 1900X1200 so they have been resized. Almost every other addon has been replaced with one of my choice:
Pitbull -> Stuf
Dominos -> Bartender4
Ark Inventory -> Bagnon
Fubar -> ButtonBin
Class Timers -> Auracle
Chinchilla -> pMinimap
Cowtip -> Tiptac
Chatter -> Prat
I use Myriad Pro font as I am not fan of pixel fonts. That being said, if you have the panels, everything else falls into place so the credit for creating the look goes to the author of IshtaraUI compilation. As per rules of this thread I can make a private download of my version available upon a request ( Keep in mind has been heavily customized for druid bear and cat ). Let me know if that still interests you.

8.7/10 like it, could put the stuff closer together a lot of looking around to me it looks like, 
This is mine... i hate it gonna fix it when i get back to my real home, i would like suggestions on what to switch x perl for. Also thinking of switching to Bartender from dominos and emptying my action bars. Yes i was lagging when i took this pic. *Side Note* I got WorldCarver about 2 weeks after this raid |

Thanks for the suggestion Neglected and Oak I scaled everything a little and made the MSBT font much smaller. Do you guys have any other suggestions that could help my UI be less cluttered?

Do you guys have any other suggestions that could help my UI be less cluttered? | i would maybe find a way to coordinate your action bars....pick the spells u use the most and have those out and then anything else u dont use all that much tuck them away in a different action bar and have them fade away so it doesnt look all cluttered there in the middle of the screen thats the only thing i can think of.

@Therelin 8.5/10 . Reason: there is a lot of empty space between your buffs; both buffs and debuffs don't seem to be aligned with anything - as if their placement was random and not part of your layout. Source: krc
Thanks for the suggestion Neglected and Oak I scaled everything a little and made the MSBT font much smaller. Do you guys have any other suggestions that could help my UI be less cluttered? | When I said reducing MSBT I was also thinking about all the unnecessary information it spams you with. You play a prot warrior. Do you need to see when Rejuvenation fades from you? Or who is healing you and for how much? Or how much damage the boss you are tanking takes from Thorns? This a matter of opinion but I think you loose the valuable information like Revenge, SnB procs, etc. in all that text. It fine to have large display for the stuff you want to see but be selective about it  .
Therelin mentioned your bars. They appear disorgenized and messy. I am sure their layout makes perfect sense to you and changing it will affect your game play. I agree with Therelin about hiding some of your buttons but I would start with simply aligning and arranging them in such a way that you can draw a tight ( imaginary ) rectangular box around all the buttons ( so no space is wasted ).
You use some sort of Viewport addon but you don't seem to utilize it ( especially the bottom ). Generally its purpose it to hold all ( most ) your UI elements to keep them from obscuring your view into 3D game world. Perhabs consider 'fitting' your bars, chat and grid into that space ( you may need to increase the hight a little ). Your debuffs seem hang 'out' the top port as well. Or disable the Viewport entirely.
Those would be my thoughts.

@ Therelin 9/10 A nearly perfect Healer-UI in my opinion. The only thing i personally dont like is the positioning of your buffs. Would love to that one in Raid-Action.
My UI:
I´m not happy with the positioning of Vigilant and some clutter on my Actionbars, but all in all it fits my needs. |
