There are not much news in scripts niche today, so I thought I share nice theme for phpmyadmin, that I discovered recently

Clear View is free, clean, white and nifty theme (skin) for phpmyadmin, currently tested with phpMyAdmin 2.9, but 2.8 may be good too.

Author, beholder-eye explains how to make this light theme even more beautiful:

If you want more pretty icons (32bit, alpha transparency), then do this:

- rename folder ‘clear_view/img’ to ‘img_8bit’
- rename folder ‘clear_view/img_32bit’ to ‘img’

but these icons will be ugly in IE 6.

It even supports so-called zebra tables, to enable them just uncomment line:

// $GLOBALS['cfg']['zebra'] = '#f5f5f5';

in layout.inc.php file

Setting theme up, is quite streight forward, just upload it to themes folder. Icons are from famfamfam

Enjoy!

Piwik is open-source, ajaxified, free visitor tracking system, formely known as phpmyvisites, which was closed down… and renamed to Piwik.

Currently Piwik provides widgets, so you can display (embed) graphs and statistic directly on your pages. It counts all the basic stats, such as: visits, keywords, refferes, search stats, browsers, geolocation, and can prepare reports in different formats. Everything is draggable and droppable.

Piwik continues its life thanks to openads team, and it’s mine mission is to

To create, as a community, the leading international open source web analytics application, providing access to all functionality through open components and open APIs

In short, Piwiks aims to be open source alternative to Google Analytics. Lets wait and see…
