The nice thing about wordpress is that it is color neutral and it doed almost everything with CSS not images. They have a few images like this for example:
http://s0.wp.com/wp-admin/images/gray-grad.png and they they have tabs like <div id="someblock" class="rounded closed"> <div class="handlediv" title="Click to toggle"> <br/> </div> <h3 class="handle"><span>Title</span></h3> <div class="inside"> .... </div> </div> all the effect logic for all "someblock"s can be handled by one very simple JS // start with all closed blocks jQuery(document).ready(function(){jQuery('.inside').hide();}); // slide-toggle when clicking on the handles jQuery('handlediv, h3.handle').click(function() {jQuery(this).parent().child('inside').slideToggle();}); the rounded corner are handled via CSS <style> .rounded { -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:6px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright:6px; -moz-border-radius-topleft:6px; -moz-border-radius-topright:6px; width: 80%; border: 1px solid #333333; } h3 { background:#DFDFDF url(images/gray-grad.png) repeat-x scroll left top; text-shadow:0 1px 0 #FFFFFF; width: 100%; } </style> Notice that when the ".inside" is closed the H3 has 4 rounded corners. When the ".inside" is open the H3 has top rounded corners and and the border of ".rounded" someblock has bottom rounded corners too, which is a cool effect. It should be possible to apply the same logic to all admin views. There is not really much more than that except for the top menu (which web2py needs) and the left accordion menu (which web2py admin does not need). I am not saying this is easy. It takes time, understanding of CSS and an artistic eye.
