    We noticed the same so developed the Easy Blogging Admin theme.

    Of course, it’s not available for free though :/ But it should be a lot cheaper very soon as an individual download (rather than having a full membership)

    I have noticed more people interested in White Labeling. There is a plugin for that and code snippets for the functions.php to White Label your own backend.

    However, I do agree, there should be more options for users wanting a different WordPress admin panel.

    Wow, that’s are really nice admin theme. I home more people will go that path in the future. But that will require simplification of admin themeifiying for sure.

    This is a goldfield waiting to be tapped and I think this post might just unleash a flood of activity. Hoping I get off my rear end enough to capitalize on it as well!

    I think one of the key problems is supporting the continuously updated nature of wordpress. It’s tiring supporting a free product and updating it each time wp releases another version.

    WordPress killed admin themes when they decided it would be a good idea to redesign the backend every other release. End of story. Who was going to put unpaid time into learning to manipulate twenty-odd pages of admin (not to mention plugin settings pages) if six months later they were going to have to do it all again?

    I am really glad Fluency is still around, though. It made 2.0 usable for me, and for that I am forever grateful.

    Fluency looks awesome. Probably much easier for making quick changes

    Not necessarily a theme, but it neatens up my admin and provides a nice bit of color.

    I think these have not been created for a while (there used to be one called tiger something? Among others) due to how good WP looks these days.

    If so many people are after one, I will make one when I have time… but what is it they want? I love the current theme of WP3.0.

    Adminimize not Adminize :)

  1. […] Weblog Tools Collection points out today that there is a lack of WordPress admin themes, but there seems to be a reasonable amount of demand. I can think of a few reasons why there aren’t tons of new admin menus: […]
