This list is meant to be a reference for people looking for mods for specific purposes. I'm hoping it will cut down on the number of threads asking for the same type of mod (e.g. the recent influx of tooltip mod questions) I'm willing to keep it updated as long as I play WoW, even if I move on from Terrin. :)

HUGE HYPER MOD EDIT (NOTE ALL CAPS AND RED TEXT):
I've replaced the original list with this one as compiled by drcrazy. I do apologize for not doing this earlier, but I don't make trips to the Mod section often. If anything is incorrect, PM Gilthresa and I'll fix it.

Aesthetic Mods
eePanels2[Outdated][Extreme Customisation]
ButtonFacade[Actionbar Button Skins]
ClearFont3[Master Font Settings]

Bartender 4[Simple Use]

Perl Classic['Out of the box' Usable] [Aesthetically Limited]
Grid[RAIDS only] [Minimalist]
Perfectraid[RAIDS only]
Clique[Extreme Customisation] [Simple Use]

This is by NO MEANS a comprehensive list. Feel free to give me mods that you deem common enough in use to go into this list. :) Preferably in this format (so it's easier for me to update ;))

Code:
[url=http://files.wowace.com]Pitbull[/url] [color=green][Ace][/color] [Extreme Customisation] [Modular]


If the mod is [nonAce] the green colour should be replaced by a yellow color code.

Thanks to: Evanwill, Serephina, Monolit, Aevie, pwnerer, MnilinM, Melantha, Ashtongue(Basic thread idea, lol :P) as well as drcrazy

If someone wants "infinitely configurable" action bars, they could check out Infinibar [Ace] [Extreme Customisation]

Flexbar is also an infinitely configurable bar mod although hell to use since the new versions...

Natur Enemy Cast Bar, should be put under casting bar as its primary function. Or perhaps something to show ur enemy's cast bar?

A few more things I think you should add which have been asked for recently

cooldown mods:
omniCC
CCwatch
dotimers
sctc
/whatever

buff mods:
buffalo
ct_buff
/whatever

tooltip mods:
cowtip
tinytooltip

general mods(perhaps added to aesthetic):
prat
ct_core
/cant think of anything else atm, too much bourbon

cheers, hope my input helps some

Cool, I didn't know about the Trinity2.0.

Prat, DoTimers, CowTip, TinyTooltip were already listed.....Did you read through the list at all? :P

I'll add the CD timers now, and what does ct_core DO anyways? I could never figure that out. =S

sry i was bourbonised last night when i read the list and made that comment :P
oh, the thing about dotimers was that you should put it on the cooldown mods list.

ct_mod... as a whole package, does all kinds of stuff

ct_core does stuff like moving tooltips, moving the quest tracker, hiding chat arrows, adding chat timestamps, moving chat entry box, it is also the base mod that the rest of the ct mods hook into

ct_buff is a buff mod like elkbuffbars
ct_bottom bar is used to break up the bottom bar into different sections (like what bartender/bongos does}
ct_bar is used to add other action bars (unlike bongos/bartenders the breaking up and the action bars are split into 2 different mods)
ct_mail mod is a mail mod lol auto opening lots of emails etc
ct_ra the most common of the bunch is used to manage raids, it was the original inspiration for oRA and this mod is actually what made blizzard take notice of what was so flawed with their old raid interface.
ct_bossmods like dbm
ct_unitframes not anywhere near as good as any other unit frames, but it adds % values and health/mana values to the default unit frames.
ct_map mod like cartographer, except not as good, doesnt automatically track npc's etc...

all in all its a pretty versatile all in one package. and despite what people think, its not very resource intensive when used on its own... only when u start mixing it with ace2 mods that ur wasting resources, 2 different mod architectures that are doing the same things and hooking into the same blizzard functions is not a good thing... Its good for people that just want to tweak the default wow interface and not completely change the look of it and spend heaps of time making an interface...

The down side is its very outdated functionality wise (most of these mods have the same functionality as they did back in the wow 1.3 days) compared to the newer ace2 doobiewhatsits...

Kk, I'll think of a way to put it and prolly things like Mazzle and Caith's in, they're pretty popular...but right now I need sleep. Parties with your ex who you're still in love with where you hook up with your friend's ex who she's still in love with (omgwtf. o.O B&B shit right there) is draining. x_x

like
aestetics
buffs
cooldowns
unitframes

etc... :]

Chronometer's Ace, right?

and I might get around to putting things in some order.... maybe.... even though it's set out all nice atm, the code for it is ugly as all hell. -_-' Poor Aevie having to do the raiding gear list. o.O
