title: How to create an admin panel in wordpress
body: <p>I am very new to writing plugins for wordpress. </p>
  
  <p>I am looking at writing a plugin where a user can upload an image, and a certain style(coded in the back end) is applied to the image. Then i would allow a user to use a short code to input the image. </p>
  
  <p>(the above is just an example of what i need to do... its a little bit more complex than this but im sure i can code it up once i get a start)</p>
  
  <p>So i the shortcode i can do. </p>
  
  <p>Firstly how would i go about creating a admin panel that can upload an image, and store that image in the database.</p>
  
  <p>when ever a user would upload the image the previous image would be overwritten.</p>
  
  <p>If someone has a link to a good tutorial on creating admin panels that would be great. the ones out there are just not working for me. </p>
