When traveling in warm water destinations, I rarely have pockets to stick stuff into...so the various things that go onto my drings include:

camera
smb/spool
wetnotes

in addition to the standard primary reg, backup lights, spg, etc...
 
What do people do particularly with the DSMB? I have the DAN one and it is quite big to dangle with a spool from a d-ring. (It might be overkill, but we are doing a few drift dives this month when we get to Playa and I want to incorporate it into my setup.)

I've got two loops of bungy on the bottom of my plate. For OW dives, I secure the DSMB there and clip the tail of it off to the butt D-ring in the event it somehow pulls out of the bungies.

If I'm doing a dive requiring multiple lift bags, I zip tie a Dive Rite quick draw sleeve to either side of the plate and put a lift bag in each.
 
That's where I hang all of my big lead weights. Doesn't everyone do it that way? (JK)
 
I've been trying to find some use for them, so I started clipping my mask to one of my D-rings on surface intervals. Other than that, I just kinda stair at them in wonder.
 
SPG cliped to my lower left d-ring, my SMG to my lower back d-ring that way it's always out of the way, when I use my reel I clip it to my lower right d-ring. I keep my wrist compass attached to my LP inflater hose
