Mirage Source

Ohh, I thought you ment in general; to make your game non-ms'ish. Well, just using command buttons and such doesn't look very good, then I rather use the one thats in use now.

It's a base engine, it doesn't need to look good. Command buttons would force people to be creative and not copy the current gui. If you don't want to do it, then don't. I'm just saying it would be better that way.

Its still a base engine if you add a a nice background to it But I understand what you mean.

I say add a skinning engine. That way, people who choose not to edit the source can add a skin. People who want to change the GUI can do so, still, maybe make a preprosser directive that disables skins.

A new gui, no matter how bland, I think would be wonderful. I can't tell you how many people I run into thinking Mirage Source is Mirage because of the GUI. Especially many people reference them as one and the same .. ergh.

What's on the GUI graphics really shouldnt matter much, as that should be one of the things the developer changes

For instance, in my new project, the gui have the website plastered all over it. Reason being, I figured nobody would want that shown in their game, so they would need to change the GUI.

yeah if you put the website and name all over it then they will have to remove it...
