I have two different All Star lineups. Here's my first one, and what versions of the characters I'm using:
Superman: Leader of the team, and its spokesperson. He's idealistic, and believes in the team very much. His best friends on the team are Bruce, Diana, and J'onn, though hes friendly with everyone. When has an order, everyone on the team follows it, except Batman. He'd be a mix of All Star Superman, Chris Reeve, and JLU Superman.
Batman: Team Strategist and Tactician. He's very much a behind the shadows type member of the team. He's aloof and mysterious, and usually appears only when he feels like it. If he dosent agree with a decision, he'll usually argue it out with Superman, but other wise, they're great friends, almost like brothers. Batman has a flirtatious relationship with Wonder Woman, and somewhat of a friendly rivalry with Hal Jordan. He's a mix of the O Neil/Adams Batman, Grant Morrison JLA Batman, TAS/JLU Batman, and Jeph Loeb Batman.
Wonder Woman: The teams other spokesman and UN representative. She's very much a warrior. She's even more subborn than Batman is. She's often cold and calculated in battle, but she also cares very much about her teammates. She's the second strongest person on the team, besides Superman. She's a mix of Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman, Greg Rucka's Wonder Woman, and Alan Heidburg's Wonder Woman.
The Flash: In my continuity, Wally West takes the mantle after Barry dies in battle. He's the rookie of the team, and the fastest member. He flirts with the ladies on the team, and acts somewhat immature. But, deep down he's a caring individual. Wally is the most accessible and relatable member of the team to the public. He's like a younger brother to many of the members. His best friend on the team is Green Lantern. He's a mix of JL/JLU Flash, Mark Waid's Flash, and Geoff John's Flash.
Green Lantern: The Hal Jordan version. He's the complete opposite of Batman: Never has a plan, lives by the light instead of the dark, and is part of a community(GL Corps), rather than by himself. Besides this, he and Bruce are friends, but have somewhat of a rivalry. He's much more cocky and charismatic than the usual version of the character. He acts very much like Indiana Jones, Tom Cruise from Top Gun, etc.
Aquaman: The Water hand version of the character. Very regal and king like, and very powerful as well. He's good friends with J'onn and Wonder Woman, and cant stand Wally's childish antics. He's a mix of Water Hand Aquaman, Grant Morrison's JLA Aquaman, and JL/JLU Aquaman.
Martian Manhunter: The heart and soul of the Justice League. The one member everyone else loves and respects. I've decided to tone down his powers a bit, focusing more on his shape shifting and telepathic abilites like on JLU.
Superman: Leader of the team, and its spokesperson. He's idealistic, and believes in the team very much. His best friends on the team are Bruce, Diana, and J'onn, though hes friendly with everyone.

Cont'd
Green Arrow: Probably the most down to earth hero on the team. He often voices his opinion to the league in an effort to make them realize that its not all about monsters and aliens. His pretty much like every version of GA since O Neil/Adams revamped him.
Hawkwomanp/b]: based on the Silver age Hawkgirl, Shayera Thal is the teams blunt instument. She's pretty much like the animated Hawkgirl.
Zatanna: The Team's magician. She's very quirky, and along with Canary, probably the most feminine member on the team. She and Batman have a special friendship since Zee's father trained him years earlier. Her best friend on the team is Dinah.
Black Canary: In my conintuity, I've merged the original and modern BC into one character. She has an on again, off again relationship with Green Arrow. She's basically like Gail Simone's version of the character, a strong and self assured woman.
Black Lightning: While he's not an iconic character, he should be. He's basically the character Tony Isabella envisoned, a hero whos a role model to black kids everywhere. Besides Superman, hes the member with the most moral convictions. He's the most level headed of the group.

i was a big fan of the morrison JLA so my team is very clearly inspired by that one. firstly, i tend to agree the DC trinity are necassary:
Batman
Superman
Wonder Woman
They also provide top teir power and strategy.
Then it becomes about covering all remaining bases, key ones being a speedster and a magic user
Zatanna
Flash (Wally)
Now i'd be perfectly happy having Zauriel, Jason Blood (never turning to etrigan), or in my wet-dream world, John Constantine. But this is the JLA we want top tier and personally i'd prefer not have an overly male heavy team (without poaching from the shadowpact)
With regards to choosing which flash, it's a shame to lose the kyle/wally relationship, but i still choose him becuse i feel it's still a nce touch to have a silverage sidekick filling his uncle' shoes. i'd love it if he were treated as a nephew by the team, who still feel it's they're duty to teach him (esp batman) in their old friend's stead.
what's left are the interpersonal relationships. my view is that the following are perfect:
Manhunter
Green Arrow
Manhunter as the outsider, newbie. a little like huntress in the morrison days but less in batman's shadow - and her own life (job / kid) would give her an almost unique POV within the league.
and who better than arrow to mix thinngs up?
have enjoyed The Question's, Master Bruce's and Harlekin's stories v much. keep 'em coming!

Wonderwoman
Batman
