You're asking for it, so here it is:

To start off, SexyMap has got to go. In an interface where the dominant theme is SQUARE, you had the brilliant idea to just slap SexyMap with its swirly rune design and a ROUND shape. Also, the bottom bar with its round border doesn't really fit in. It may, if you're into designing half-finished UI's, but since you asked for criticism, you've got it.

Furthermore, I noticed you're using both unitframes and a HUD. Nothing wrong there, except the negligible loss of space. However, you're using two target of target frames. Doesn't that strike you as a bit odd?

To add to the general mismatching, you use different textures for the buff bars and unitframes. Design-wise, you should go for a constant, smooth look, try setting them up properly in your next update. Also, disable showing tracking buffs, they're not really necessary.

From what I gather, it's your first shot at doing a UI. It's not half bad, but not half good either. Try adjusting some of the features and improving the look and maybe, just maybe, you'll get some positive comments and even downloads.
