Ok guys this is simple i have been looking on tankspot and other raid advise vids and pics and i wanna make my ui simple and maximize my view so its not all cramped with usless crap.
Soooooo if any of you recomend any addons for Raids todo this can you pls type here. I am sure i am not the only one who could use this info.
Also papamato has said alot recently about addons that can slow your game play and dont help you in a raid or party. maybe you could add that info on here for all the guild to see if you get time 
Hope you can all help me thanks
Enhanced in every way!

-Opie - very awsome for clearing things like mounts and buffs and other things u dont use very often or at least done have to use very quickly
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/opie.aspx
-iceHUD- i use this and disable my target box
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/ice-hud.aspx
-dominos- actionbar addon, very simple to use basicly lets u move/remove/change ur actionbars.
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/dominos.aspx
-sexymap- allows you to alter/move you map as well as change its skin
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/sexymap.aspx
-coolline- shows cooldowns
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/coolline-cooldowns.aspx
-buffalo- allows you to move/modify your buffs/debuffs

-power auras classic- allows you to set up animations for trinket/spell procs

I play DBM and Omen. All down to personal pref ofc, I have tried out some serious tricked out UI's, which looked great, and needed 2 hours or more of maintenance every patch

DBM,Recount and Omen were all i was usin for more than 2 years now hehe. but after reading this thread ive given Bartender a try and loved it. it lets you move your action bars and chop them to your liking. so you can gather em all at the middle like a champ and have more free space =) |

most random yet epic addon ever goes to -comix-
anyone that know/remembers the old school batman that had those stupid sound effect like "POW!!!" with the huge ass cartoonish writing, that is exactly what this addon does except its also uses sound effects from things like unreal tourny. it does get annoying eventually in raids but still funny for while XD.
