True enough :) but I think it takes a reasonable ammount of talent to make
really intuative and compact UIs (screen realestate is an issue) even if
if doesnt have a photorealistic interface. Theres a loopbased performace
instrument that I think is a really good example (I cant remeber its
name), it only uses geometric 2-tone widgets, but its got an easy to use
interface and is well disigned. Personally, I dont have design skills
anywhere near that good, and I havent seen anything as good from other LAD
developers.

The [...] lack of skilled graphic designers with
time to spare is a
bit of a problem.
I'm not sure if that indeed is a problem. One thing I like in Pd and
similar systems including Gem is, that it allows users to create their
own GUI from very simple building blocks: a square, a line, a
circle... You don't need graphic wizards to design a square. ;)
