Do you get confused when you look at the Joomla administraton screen? Or worse, do your clients complain Joomla is to complicated and confusing? Learn to simplify your Joomla administration panel by getting rid of unused icons, add custom shorcuts, create inline help files to make your client's experience less frustrating.
There are many Joomla Extensions in the JED that can help you customize the Joomla Control Panel. One of those extensions is "Custom QuickIcons" available at http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/administration/extensions-quickicons/463. With CQI you can create icons that link directly to a component or even to a screen inside a component interface.
You can even link directly to any module or Plugin admin screen. Better yet, you can assign different icons to different user groups or even unique users.
