I really like the backoffice GUI of Umbraco. Its easy to work with and gentle on the eyes. However I suppose there is always room for minor improvements. For instance I think that the tray icons could be a little more saying, the texts could be less blurry and sometimes a translation of the text is needed. Therefore I usually change the tray icon file and thought I would share it. Its a tinie tiny improvement (if even that) but it takes 10 seconds to do.
Installation
Just download the appropriate language tray icon file and overwrite the existing tray icon file in /umbraco/images/tray
If you need support for another language, you can download the Photoshop file and make your own. Please share it here.
