OK, let's step down a bit from Twitter for a while. This is a much overdue update to the übercòól Admin Drop Down Menu.

Kaspars updated is fun plugin Baltic Amber (bringing some refreshing change in the WordPress backend with a set of new stylesheets) to make it fully compatible with my own Admin Drop Down Menu. He threw in some really nice subtle tweaks (see screenshot) that make the two plugins coexist very harmoniously. Good job Kaspars! :)[...] → Read more
