On the admin theme:
It seems to me that it would be great to have a really basic Admin theme that allows the logo and the site name to be placed in a header, content to be placed in a footer, and the colors controlled via CSS and that's about it.
The problem I see is that making a site theme work on the admin section isn't realistic since things that work great on the site itself play havoc with the admin area.
Is there a REALLY SIMPLE admin theme that can be used with any theme?
Bluemarine. Maybe bluemarine with the colours removed/neutralized, and only two column. I usually split the entire admin menu tree into its own "Admin" menu, enable the block, and use PHP to have it appear only to those with admin rights. Further, if you don't want to have it appear on "regular" pages, you can restrict it to show only on admin/* pages. -- Boris
