LG Add Sitename is a simple ExpressionEngine extension inspired by Ryan Masugas Add Sitename Extension.

This extension allows you to add any html and css to the ExpressionEngine administration header including images, flash or any other html element. UTC and user localised time can also be displayed in the header which will help with debugging timezones.

Show Time? [required]

Yes|No

Times will be displayed in the header in the following format:

Server Time: Fri Aug 22 15:07:45 EST 2008
EE UTC Time: Fri Aug 22 5:07:45 UTC 2008
PHP UTC Time: Fri Aug 22 5:07:45 UTC 2008
Localised Time: Fri Aug 22 15:07:45 2008
Localised EE Human Time: 2008-08-22 03:07 PM

These times are really helpful when trying to debug server, user and localisation issues. This feature is more of a present to ExpressionEngine extension developers more than anything else.
