What kind of dining room light fixture should I get?

I currently have a semi-flush 3 light fixture. It is outdated and ugly. What kind of fixture should I replace it with? (Send me links with pictures if you can find one.)

My dining room table is elegant, kind’ve fancy. The dining room is at the end of the kitchen (it is small, only the table fits in there), and the living room is at the other end of the dining room. The kitchen, dining room, living room form a U shape, the kitchen and living room are parallel, separated by a wall.(From the kitchen, you walk through dining room to get to the livingroom.)

The dining room light fixture is in the middle of the room, so my table can’t be directly under the fixture because there wouldn’t be enough room to walk to the living room. So a long light directly above the table is out of the question since it wouldn’t be centered above the table. Suggestions?

You can center a light over your table anyway. All you need to do is replace the short normal wiring and chain that is usually furnished with a hanging light. Make it long enough to reach your table and there you have it. Use a really nice hook over the table and you’ll be fine. Home Depot has some really nice lighting fixtures.
