    I would skip wine doors. I dont think its necessary at all, I had a similarly bad experience with it. Just install windows programs through wine like normal, and use winecfg in the terminal to configure wine. (or create a launcher for it if you use it enough).

    If you are willing to shell out $40, CrossOver Games is really good, plus by buying it you are supporting the Wine effort. www.codeweavers.com

    EDIT - Almost forgot, they offer a free demo, so you can try before you buy.

    +1 on Cogs call.

    The only other true wine gui Ive ever seen is a development called winexs (very unsupported, and very non-pretty).

    You can try it if youd like, but really You should learn to use Wine from the command line properly first.
