I'm getting closer to a beauty pass on the UI of my latest space game. As a not-artist, I'm always on the lookout for "inspiration" I can base my work on.

Can anyone point me to games or screenshots that contain nice looking UIs, suitable for a space game? Thanks!

depends.. what kind of space game is it?

If its action, the following link will uncover a space game that I found to have a great UI and I intend to have mine similar..

There are plenty of UI-tutorials for Photoshop available on the net. If you don't use Photoshop I'm sure they could be easily adapted for other graphics software, too!

Why not hire a good artist? He or she will probably come up with a better UI than you can ever think of on your own. (That's not meant as critisism towards you; I just no how my UIs turn out when I try and do them myself. :))
