LogonStudio Vista Arrives!

Now available on Stardock Central for Object Desktop users!

Saturday, January 27, 2007 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

Stardock LogonStudio for Windows Vista has gone into beta for users of Object Desktop.  LogonStudio is a program that enables users to replace the Windows Vista logon screen with one of their own creation or use one made by others.  The new .logonvista format has been designed to be extensible so that as Stardock adds more features to the format, existing logons will continue to work.

We have created a new gallery on WinCustomize.com to support these new logons. Taking screenshots is a bit of a challenge since print-screen doesn't work when you're at the logon prompt in Windows Vista but Stardock plans to add support for making screenshot previews in an upcoming build.

If you don't have Object Desktop, now's a good time to get it. Object Desktop is Stardock's premiere suite of desktop enhancement utilities that includes WindowBlinds, IconPackager, DesktopX, ObjectBar, RightClick, SkinStudio, and many other programs that can completely transform the Windows desktop to your own design.  LogonStudio Vista is the first of the Windows Vista specific programs released (users of Windows XP have LogonStudio XP already).

It is meant to, yes. It cannot do everything but it will try to take the background.

As far as I know, yes. I don't know when that will be, though - not my decision.

I looooove what I see, but I cannot pay $50 bucks for this. Will this go free after the beta, like the XP version?

I would like to know. Thanks (looks around for fist swinging in general direction of face).

Not a swing in the general direction but the $50 is for many more programs included in ObjectDesktop of which LogonStudio Vista is only one of them - https://www.stardock.com/products/odnt/features.asp

Please change the 'purchase' link so that it doesn't automatically take you to buying a $50 product...

I almost gave up on this app until I searched for the free version. I really wasn't going to pay $50 to put a wallpaper image on my login screen. advertising something, then bundling it as a high priced package is .. to say the least.. annoying.. I don't mind paying 'something' just the sticker-shock overcame me
