You dont really need to see more (pallypower for a pala), rest is hotkeys. If I have to much small stuff on my screen its just confusing... I think your UI is nice but the skillbars seem abit overloaded with skills, I like it more clear and the important stuff standing out..
I keep the looks of an ui important and I can't help it. Still you're so right that my action bars are overloaded. I often spec retri and I don't like having to always redo my bars so I just swap some skills here and there and switch the page of the skillbar I'm using with shift+mouse scroll.

I also have some useless things there like party frames showing when in raid. I don't use them in any way when I'm in a raid but I'm just used to them being there.

And oh yes my ui also used to look horrible. This was taken about 1 year and 3 months ago. I pwned some belf locks ***.
