adminBranding is a rework of zp-branding plugin for Zenphoto CMS for customization of backend.
Originally intended as a fork of zp-branding v1.4 to be merged with zp-branding, it has transformed into a rewritten plugin and completely changed logic of operation.
Since our approaches to the task and customization needs are so different, me and @fretzl have decided to keep projects separate (hence the rename). Instead of proposed zp-branding ver 2.0 this work is released as adminBranding v1.0
It was tested with latest Zenphoto version 1.6.3a.

What it does differently from zp-branding:
- adminBranding doesn't use included custom Logo image.
- If user wants to use custom Logo - they need to upload it into designated area, to protect files from being overwritten on the update.
- adminBranding greatly expands available options.
- adminBranding allows user mix and match plugin Options to combine custom and default elements for their desired look.
Options:
- Logo for Admin (Default, Custom, No logo) with ability to specify width and margins.
- Background styling for Admin (Default image, Custom image, No image, Image repeat behaviour, Color)
- Styling of Text and Links in Admin.
- Custom inline CSS.
- Custom CSS file for further alterations
- Supports translation, and I've provided one for Russian (ru_RU).
- Custom Logo, Background images and CSS files should be placed in "/uploaded/design" folder of your Zenphoto install (see more info on UPLOAD FOLDER of Zenphoto).
Installation:
- Copy "/admin-branding" folder and "admin-branding.php" into the "/plugins" folder of your Zenphoto installation.
- Enable the "adminBranding" plugin in the Zenphoto backend (Admin section of plugins list).
- Upload custom Logo and background images into "/uploaded/design" folder (see above).
- Setup plugin to your liking via plugin options.
