I'm just getting involved here and I do a lot of web development so I figured 
I'd point you at Bootstrap, from Twitter:

http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/

I've been using it a lot recently and here are two examples:

http://jcscoobyrs.github.com/

The reason I bring this up is if we can avoid reinventing the wheel to get a 
useful app out now and then tailor things to suite feedback/preference, it 
might save us some time without compromising on look by using Twitter's 
Bootstrap.  One of the best things about using Bootstrap is that it can be 
customized really easy using Less (http://lesscss.org/).  Another cool thing is 
that it uses CSS classes for just about everything so you could easily migrate 
away from Bootstrap without changing your markup at all if you felt so inclined.

After writing a few web-based UIs, I have come to love the idea of letting 
someone else spending the time/effort to create a great starting point.  ;)

Take care,
