I have this same problem with new logons I've started. I usually give up and copy elements from other working logons and manually edit them. This is a real pain in the butt.

Moderator - is anybody going to address this issue? I mean really - isn't it about time someone here took responsibility and at least tried to answer this? C'mon folks, share the deep dark mysterious secret. Pleeease!

This is a common and well known issue which has been addressed in many threads..... nobody seems to know how to fix this! Nice avatar Geduget!

setting to false and getting white has been that way since I can remember

if you want to blend using the normal layout of the shutdown (normal bottom panel)

take your center pick and crop/copy the bottom at the height you want the panel and use that for the bottom panel - tweak the height as needed to blend

Well - well - well, now what this is telling me is that the boys doing the programming at Stardock really don't care about releasing flawed software. Why do I say that? BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT AN ISSUE IN THE ORIGINAL RC1 RELEASE. I never had this problem until I installed the latest public version (1.0.64). I just wish I could find the RC1 version.

Helloooo - Stardock, are you listening?

(jeeeez, get with it already)

I Believe that LogonStudio is now unsupported..... correct me if I'm wrong!

err, yes. That's my whole point - it IS unsupported. It SHOULD NOT BE unsupported. Gillions of users, and they don't even care - OR, maybe they know it was unstable to begin with. Why else would they develop the new Vista Logon Studio to look so much like (dare I mention) StyleXP. (Ohh, shame on me for thinking of a competitor to the mighty and bodaceous Stardock!)
did I mention I'm upset?
