How do YOU customize BUG?

I usually remove everything except the GP Bar, the turn timers on the culture and GP bars in the cities, the dotmapping tool, the culture/whip/happiness/healthiness reminders, and the enhanced Victory Screen. The rest goes, it's kind of weird.

It just seems..simpler to me. Less cluttered. It's an awesome mod though!
 
I love the Customizable Domestic Advisor. I deleted most of the pre-set screens and made my own.
The City Overview screen gives me a snapshot of Population, Automation, Growth, Happiness, Health, Commerce, Gold & maintenance cost, production, Culture, Great People, and Military Strength. Nothing else on that screen (I might add more to it now that I have a larger monitor).
The City Details screen gives me an overview of Religions, Corporations, and Specialists.
My favorite screen is the City Building Advisor, in which I included all buildings I generally build, in order of when they generally arrive in the game by tech, so I know which cities need what.
Then a Hurry Advisor in case I'm in Slavery (almost never) or Universal Suffrage. This screen gives me an overview of rush costs. Very useful in the later stages of the game when I have lots of money and lots of cities which need stuff.
A Religious Buildings Advisor again lets me know what religions are in a city, and this time followed by a list of all religious buildings available in the game to know who could use what. This is helpful if happiness is an issue, or if I'm going for a Cultural Victory.
A Resources screen gives me a snapshot of which cities have which resources. I generally only look at the capital to find out what I need to get through trade or expansion/conquest.

I also like that BUG allows you to stretch out the Domestic Advisor Screens, allowing it to display more info.

I also make use of the new Field of View to show more on the screen (though I might bring it back down now that I have a bigger monitor).

I also adjusted the Alerts screen so that I only see Growth and Happiness/pending Happiness during the later parts of the game when I'd normally get TMI.

I disabled logging for the time being. I turned off the Alt Game Clock. In the scoreboard, I increased the Power Ratio display to 3 decimal places. A few other minor tweaks, too.
 
I really love it when people disable some of BUG but keep the parts that I added :D:D
 
Every time I start a game, I have to go into the city screen and set the yield summary to food + all tiles. I wish there was a way to set this as the default for the display. I do know about the drop-down for it in the options, but it doesn't seem to work for me, and even if I could have it default to food I'd need to change the tile coverage from current tiles to all tiles (the second option).
