Dreamhost enhanced web panel appearance Mar02 '07

Dreamhost recently provided a face-lift to their web administration panel, after years of the same look. I've been waiting for this change for a long time. Now I no longer feel like I'm using a web site from 1995.

The first thing noticed is the much cleaner look, and obvious use of CSS. The previous web panel had hardly any consistency between certain page elements, such as bold text and header text - ie: some would be red; some would be italicized, etc. You could tell they were just adding random <font> tags wherever they felt necessary.

Now, page headers have consistency throughout the site:

Also noticed is the more "rounded" appearance. Corners no longer have sharp, boxy edges:

CSS has done wonders for Dreamhost.
