The above link is a picture I'd like to use as a login screen but I can't seem to get it to work properly. I turned it into a 1400x1050 bmp via Photoshop but, when I tried using LogonStudio to create the login screen, it'd come out with a light blue background and would not be full screen. Given that I'm not too familiar with how to create such things, I turn to the request forums for help.
I'd like the logon to have following appearance:
-The above-linked picture as a full-screen image suitable for 1400x1050 resolution (no top or bottom panels and no dividers)
-Minimal text visible, preferably only the stuff the shows up when you mouse over the user picture
-No background behind the user picture and password box on mouseover or otherwise
-User picture and password edit located in the upper left

Backgroup is a typo. Meant to say "background." Basically, the girl and all the code behind is transferred onto a light blue/aqua background instead of the black in the original picture. I'm not sure how to take a screenshot of it, else I would post such.

That bites. What editor do you use? What if you create another pic same size solid black and then put that one on top as another layer? Maybe it will fill it in? My get blotch sometimes, except for the pic I am about to show. It get what you showed but kinda worse. But it only does it when you run it.

That there is the result of LogonStudio + bmp created in Photoshop. The bmp looks just fine, though. Guess I'll try the black layer thing.

only 2 ways i know to make it full screen:
no bottom panel = no shut down either
crop/copy part of the bottom of the pic and use that as tje bottom panel pic and adjust height to blend (you can't make it transparent - that's why you got the white panel)
in the picture below - on the right where it says 'account 2' click the box, if no box click on the right anyway - you get the popup position window.
notice on the picture above you have 3 alpha states - the smaller the number the more transparent (0-255)
you can also move the 'to begin, click user name' by clicking on the right of logo/welcome

That really didn't work. When I logged out to see what it looked like, I got some parsing error and the computer damn near froze. I hate being a noob.
