Hawkman
Green Arrow
Hourman Android
Doctor Fate
Jade
Power Girl
Martian Manhunter
Truth be told, the current JLU lineup is nearly perfect in my mind.
I'll start with my first contribution:
My dream JLUnited:
I think the team should really embrace its cosmic side. This team's purpose would be to protect Earth from outer threats, be they alien in nature or from other dimensions.
I'd add Big Barda and Mr. Miracle and remove GA, Animal Man and maybe Equinox.
I'd add Big Barda because I wanted a kick-ass female character that's a little more experienced than her teenaged teamates and also someone who could convingly stand up to someone like Hawkman, not only in terms of attitude but also powerwise.
Mr. Miracle would fill Animal Man's role as the team's "everyman". Animal Man would move to Justice League Dark.
Martian Manhunter would be team leader. I'd also explore his connections to Stormwatch, I think they would be interesting recurring guest stars/antagonists.
For me, I would love to see a new Justice League International with:
-Vixen : leader of the team.
-Captain Atom : co-leader whose energies reformed whereupon he got drafted into the US military to be their representative on the new JLI.
-Firehawk : saved by Captain Atom and inducted into the team to help help her.
-Plastic Man : resident joker with a dark past.
-Bulleteer : she would be the newbie hero and offering a fresh pair of eyes into super heroics.
-Red Tornado : built by Morrow and becomes part of the team.
-Doctor Kimiyo Hoshi-Light : wife of Doctor Light who gains his light manipulation powers.
-Mr. Scarlet : reimagined version of the Fawcett character with some mystery to him.
Would also have a ninth member slot available that would be rotating and include various international heroes per arc. So, one arc has Rocket Red, the next August General in Iron etc etc. kind of cheating but that's a dream team/book I would like to see happen.
My two favorite versions of the team.
"In any time, there will always be a need for heroes." - the Time Trapper, Legion of Superheroes #61(1994)
"What can I say? I guess I outgrew maturity.." - Bob Chipman
Green Arrow, Black Lightning, Captain Atom, Raven, Hawkman, Starfire & Elongated Man
SUPERMAN
BATMAN
WONDER WOMAN
THE FLASH (Barry)
GREEN LANTERN (Hal)
CYBORG
HAWKGIRL
Reserves:
AQUAMAN
BLACK CANARY
GREEN ARROW
HAWKMAN
Also PLASTIC MAN, but he's not really part of the team. He just won't leave.

damn, theXfactor (that's you right?), can I borrow some of your photoshop skills? I almost am tempted to do some of the ol' micro line-ups, but that'd take way too long...
I guess if we're going teams, I'll do the 3 currently existing ones (sorry JLA and JLI!), plus my own personal dream team...and have creative teams (of [at least recent] DC talent)!
Justice League by Geoff Johns & Mikel Janin - Superman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, Flash, Black Canary, Vixen, Aquaman
Justice League United by Jeff Lemire & Javier Pina - Martian Manhunter, Stargirl, Adam Strange, Power Girl, Equinox, Hawkgirl, Batwing, Beautiful Dreamer, Blue Beetle
Justice League Dark by China Mieville & Andrea Sorrentino - Zatanna, Frankenstein, Black Orchid, Amethyst, Klarion
Justice League Investigations by Peter Milligan & Cliff Chiang - Elongated Man, Detective Chimp, The Atom, Dr. Light

Comics were definitely happier, breezier and more confident in their own strengths before Hollywood and the Internet turned the business of writing superhero stories into the production of low budget storyboards or, worse, into conformist, fruitless attempts to impress or entertain a small group of people who appear to hate comics and their creators. -- Grant Morrison, 2008
trade-waiting - Ice Cream Man, Monstress
backlog - Blade of the Immortal, Mignolaverse, Promethea, X-Cutioner's Song
Main Team:
Superman
Nightwing (Dick Grayson)
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern (Alan Scott)
Flash (Jay Garrick)
Zatanna
Beetle (Theodora "Teddi" Kord)
Booster Gold
Reserve and rotating members
Power Girl
Doctor Fate
Steel (John Henry Irons)
Adam Strange
Stargirl
Jessie Quick (either legacy or new female Johnny Quick)
J'onn J'onnzz
I'll stick to Grant Morrison's Big 7, with a minor adjustment:
Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Aquaman
Flash (Wally West)
Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner)
Green Arrow (Connor Hawke)
Superman (Kal-El)
Batman (Dick Grayson)
Wonder Woman (Diana Prince)
Green Lantern (Alan Scott)
Flash (Wally West)
Aquaman (Arthur Curry)
Martian Manhunter (J'onn J'onzz)
Green Arrow (Oliver Queen)
Black Canary (Dinah Lance)
The Atom (Ray Palmer)
Plastic Man (Eel O'Brian)
Captain Marvel (Freddy Freeman)
These would all be pre-New 52.
