This is a great feature, imho. Coming from another ACP Theme, where there were no default icons in case of plugins, this is crucial to me. I had to keep a note of pages in the notepad - eg, To add a Patch, visit www.example.com/admin/index.php...

I've noticed some people are having problems with this so I'll rather wait until you release the proper version, How long will this be until you release it?

We're working every day to find a general solution to the PHP version issue: we're just searching for the best way to handle ZIP archives since we already developed a real /admin folder backup, but after some days of testing it ended up with a partial failure.

I will probably add a manual installation tutorial as I said in a previous post although this will require some particular edits and a bit of advanced knowledge, definitely not the best solution rather than a simple one-click installation wizard (and this is what we're trying to maintain for the upcoming release which adds a lot of new functionalities both for the wizard and the theme itself).

Nevertheless, feel free to try it Seanfromleeds. The installer won't even work if there are PHP incompatibilities, so you don't have to worry about broken stuffs and such. In addition to this, I added some 'safe' steps in the first page of the installer just to avoid users to lost data or something similar. You can also try it on a development board before installing on your live one: the more feedbacks I get the more I can investigate and find solutions to the reported problems.

will you be creating a proper new theme not just ACP?

Installed this just now. Looks good, but maybe get a better font? And there are some alignment issues, and LQ GFX.

And lastly, font doesn't look good:

Seems you're on a bad browser or a bad OS. The theme was developed on a Mac with WebKit and Mozilla engines, I can't guarantee full support for every OS and browser combination due to the vast amount of work it would require.

I guess you're browsing from an 'old' Windows machine probably running IE or Firefox. XP and Vista may render really bad even standard fonts designers user such as Helvetica (which I mainly used for the theme). The only advice I can give you is to change your browser (or even your OS).

@Seanfromleeds: I'm currently developing a front-end theme but it would be an exclusive for my board. Here you can see some previews.

You have some absolutely horrible rendering. It's time to update.

Huh? Is it only me? Weird...

I'm on Windows 7 64 Bit, on Chrome - Latest Version.

I don't know what's wrong?

Plus, I have a custom build computer, pretty high-end too. Any idea what's wrong? Need to look into this, thanks for letting me know that it's just me.

There's your problem. Windows has horrible font rendering. Try turning on ClearType and seeing if it looks any better, and if it's already on, turn it off.

Yo you can't just say "oh it's your Windows 7 fault." I'm a Mac user but that's ridiculous. There's clearly something wrong here. You didn't even ask him to show what other sites look like.
