The instructions are telling you to put the file into your theme’s directory.

The instructions say :1. drop this plugin (the PHP file named ‘wp-admin-themer.php’)on your plugins folder,(this I can do)
2. activate the plugin, ,(this I can do)
3. write a stylesheet for your WordPress administrative interface, (have no idea how)and
4. save that stylesheet in the directory of your active theme, named ‘wp-admin.css’.” (there is not such a directory only a file with this name)
4 – regarding Active Theme Directory.
Go to your Presentation menu and make note of what theme your blog is running. That’s your Active Theme. You’ll find its directory at /YourBlogDirectory/wp-content/themes/YourThemeName
If you don’t know how to write the stylesheet, this plugin isn’t going to be of much use to you. If you want to change the appearance of the admin area, you will either have to use something else, or look for a stylesheet that someone else has done.
The instructions could do with re-writing. What it means is this:
3. Write a stylesheet for your WordPress administative interface, and save it as wp-admin.css.
4. Save or upload wp-admin.css in your theme directory (typically /wordpress/wp-content/themes/yourtheme)

I am determined to succeed it! I work with challenges all time. Thanks enormously, but please try me, give me more detailed instructions you people that are so experienced and have faith in me. I will make it! Please, give me more details of every step. I repeat I have uploaded many-many themes, something that I just learned yesterday togethet with FTP that I had no idea. I am very good in learning FAST. Pleas, help do not hesitate thinking that I will not suceed.
“Detailed instructions” would mean to write the stylesheet for you 🙂
There is no other way – you have to learn CSS if you want to write your own stylesheet.

I have finally altered css and managed to increase the length of CATEGORIES list. This was the reaseon I needed wp-admin-themer in the first place. I have made that using “#categorydiv div {
height: 200em;
overflow: auto;
}” in css. However I need some more room, I increase 200 to 400 but the list is not increasing anymore. Any suggestions?
