Trick or Treat? (an Admin Theme)

[Magdelena Grohol]

Are you as bored with the blue on blue on blue admin screens of AbleCommerce as I am? This Halloween, I am handing out treats. Here's a mostly complete admin theme - it works with all browsers but only FireFox, Chrome, or Safari are going to give you rounded corners.

There are probably still quirks with it - I haven't checked every screen! And there are a few pages that are not coded correctly - like Edit Category - so it won't use the dynamic theme and always uses the blue on blue. Hopefully Able fixes that soon, nudge nudge.

If you want to have a fresh look and feel, all you have to do to install it is unzip the attachment and put the SpookyAdmin folder into App_Themes of your AbleCommerce store. You could rename it to something else if you really want, but then you have to update the hardcoded references in the *.skin files. Here's a little taste of it looks like:

This is very cool but I think it might be a little too much to look at every day.

I would love a good every day one though.
