Yes, the point was to show you could make custom UI's utilizing the "out of the box" functionality of jQuery UI. I tried to incorporate as much of the library as I could. I used a ThemeRoller theme (ui-lightness) to show how easy it could be to maintain a consistent theme across all widgets on a page. Thanks for the comment.
I got hung up on the "complex" part, but maybe I just underestimate my own skills. ;)
