I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean you want it totally invisible when you apply the logon and only show when you mouseover it? Explain a bit more and maybe I can give you some help.

I want the logon block surrounding the password and go button and picture to be the exact same as the background image. the only way that i can think of this is to chop the original background image to the size at the place but i dont know the actual x,y coords to chop it to

the image I'm talking about is bitmap_112 (in the default ones its 308x78) or something

Yes, in Logon Studio, that is the only way I know of to get 112 to appear invisible. And depending on the wall you are using and where you are positioning the user pane depends on how hard it will be to match. I've done it before and it is a lot of trial and error. Apply the logon and try to visually find reference points on the wall as to what 112 covers, then cut a piece of the wall, save it as 112, and reapply the logon and see how close you are. It can take quite a while depending what exactly on the wall you are trying to match. I don't know about X,Y coordinates working...they might, but when I've done it with Logon Studio I've just done it the way I just described. If possible, try to position the user pane somewhere on the wall that is easiest to match if at all possible, but I know that doesn't always look right either. Good luck
