1st try with the Admin theme

I checked out the admin module ( http://drupal.org/project/admin ) last night on a side project I've got - I think I like it.

It reorganizes your admin menu structure into groups which are more sensible, and looks really nice if you're using the rubik theme ( http://code.developmentseed.org/rubik ). Rubik is a subtheme of Tao ( http://code.developmentseed.org/tao ).

Both the admin module and it's accompanying themes were created by Development Seed, may they live forever.

So here's the process I followed to get them set up:

1. install the module
2. install the two themes
3. enable all the module and the themes
   
4. Try to set the admin theme to Rubik by visiting /admin/settings/admin on my site.
5. Discover that with the admin module turned on, it appears that /admin/settings/admin doesn't work at all.
6. disable admin module
7. visit /admin/settings/admin to set rubik as the admin theme
8. re-enable admin module
9. admire pretty new admin screens and nicer information architecture.
10. feel sad that my themes are so incomplete and not pretty
11. start thinking dangerously about starting a new theme for UNT based on Tao.

Admin module appears to be the next best thing to Drupal 7's usability improvements for Drupal 6. Try it out. Watch out for the /admin/settings/admin bug, in case it bites you.
