DirectAdmin – rebranding and fresh new look needed!

I'll be honest, I would like to see some visual improvements. even if its only on the initial pages.
biggest thing for me is needing the readcrumbs on bottom to not be light gray on white background. probably a quick css fix I just have not looked.
 
Richard G, SeLLeRoNe, and scsi:

No need to compare with Interworx; the target markets are actually quite different. But did you look at their comparison chart? Lots of errors in the DirectAdmin column. Probably some with cPanel and Plesk as well. All have their markets and their target admins.

They use RPM installation and don't say anything about multile version support, so important to DirectAdmin admins. And they use qmail.

And, too, I agree with r3chn3r that if looks were so important there'd be more skins available for DirectAdmin.

But for those of us who truly want our own look, perhaps you should look into WHMCS and the plugin that allows you to run all DirectAdmin user features from inside WHMCS. That, and a Zomex skin (Jack is working on an install for me even as I write this), and presto you've got your own design, custom to you, and for a lot less money than it would cost you to develop one yurself.

I think you have to look more directadmin image.
For at least need to change the main page of directadmin.
The main page gives the impression that it is an old project and abandoned.
 
It is sad that Directadmin use the same skin for over much years, i you look at cpan*l you see they have brand new designs.
Also the administration panel on Directadmin.com can have a new design + better interface.
 
There are people who would argue with you that changing the skin is unnecessary since it means a lot of retraining. Ask all those office managers who had to retrain hundreds of users when Microsoft last changed the Office interface. I'm not sure what you mean by the [/i]administration panel on directadmin.com[/i].

But I like to point out the DirectAdmin is by far the best control panel for getting new suggestions implemented. Just follow the feature requests for a while to see how many get implemented and how quickly.

Hi Folks,

I personally agree about the necessity of a new skin, however, rather than talking too much I will start my own skin project. If you are interested to also own a brilliant skin, you can be part of it and invest to make it real. The lead time will be about 4 months from the kick-off. If you have 500$ to invest to get a new fresh skin, you will receive one unlimited use license.
