I can't remember if I publicly shared this stuff, (and can't quickly find evidence of having done so) but I thought I'd just show off the main ACP front page again, now that I finally got round to putting images on everything.
It's not really any different in terms of use - the menu is still where you expect everything to be - but this is what you're greeted with on entering the ACP. (see attached)
As I was poking around lately, I did wonder if the front page of each of those sections should be a placeholder of sorts, pointing you at the relevant pages, and the relevant tasks that can be achieved in each area, rather than blindly dropping you into whichever one happened to be first on the list, but that's something to discuss rather than to implement right now.
Most of the rest of the ACP is visually unchanged from SMF's time, even if a lot of changes have occurred as to where things are - but that's what the search feature is for, right? (And it is already better than SMF's, there's more in it than in SMF's, where we've moved things back into the conventional pages rather than in places like theme settings, but there's always more to do with that.)
