Demo: http://www.rockettheme.com/blog/joomla/918-missioncontrol-new-joomla-admin-templateFor the past month we've been working on a little "SkunkWorks" project that started off life as an experiment, but has slowly morphed into a working prototype. The idea was to create a cleaner, more flexible Administrator template that could be color-configured, and also clean up some UI elements that have long bothered us. After the jump you can see some screenshots that are from an actual 100% live but stock Joomla template install. We created a few extra administrator extensions for improved user tracking that you can see on the Dahsboard.
