I remember that I was very revolted about the customizing thing in WordPress. I have always wanted to see my own logo in the admin login and control panel, and when people sign in to see the design from my blog. I was actually feelt weird to see that a powerful CMS system like WordPress doesn’t let people to easily customize the appearence of the admin area. I than start searching for every image file and possible hack, but there was nothing that could help me.

Fortunately, now there is Custom Admin Branding. Custom Admin Branding is, as I believe you figured out a simple wordpress plugin that helps you to add your own brand on WordPress and actually change the entire look of your admin graphical user interface.

The customizing process is quite easy. All you have to do is to start designing new images for your brand and just replace them in the Custom Admin Branding wordpress plugin source.

That’s how my admin area and login section look now.
