Pros
I liked the program. I am trying to remove it to diagnose another problem I am having.
Cons
Impossible to get rid of this thing. I have researched this and tried several solutions (one from Stardock itself), but I still have it. It's not listed in the 'Add or remove programs list' under the control panel. I am using Windows XP SP 3. I will never use another Stardock product.
Summary
Nothing should be this difficult to remove! Back to research again.

Allows user to change the look of the log-on screen. Allows use of not only the set images, but also gives user the ability to create their own.

You need a different installer from the Stardock website for XP, this version is for Vista/7
Pros
Nice software, does the job.
Cons
I have an error message (unhandled exception has occurred in a component of your application) that appears whenever I try to change my logon skin and I've tried almost everything to fix it (checked compatibility with firewall/ security program (McAfee), uninstalled and re-installed, etc.)
Summary
It's good software, but I need some help. If you can help, please reply and send me an email.

Well, somehow my issue fixed itself. Perhaps it was a system restore or a defrag...I'm really not sure, but it seems to be working fine for now.

Pros
Lots of great pics and booting up and logging on is not as standard as it is with Windows.
Cons
Thus it is a short program, it runs a little bit slow.
Summary
I will always use it to make my pc interesting to see from a distance.

Pros
Changing the logon screen is much easier than trying to do it using the "Windows 7 instructions" from Microsoft
It is small and it is FREE!
The window called "My logon screens" shows thumbnails of the various images available making it easy to choose one.
There are images available for downloading.
Cons
Instructions are not the best. In fact they are pretty much non existent. Fortunately it is easy enough to figure out how the program works (it really is simple).
Image choice is somewhat limited if you want to create your own (size and format)
Summary
This little program makes changing the logon screen really easy. It takes a bit of time and experimenting to get the hang of creating your own images (really just using your own photos and images). Once I got a "feel" for the program I had no problem getting it to work. The only real disappointment came when I found that some of the images I was hoping to use really did not work well as a background in the logon screen window (simple photos and images seem to work best). That being said the program is so easy to use that adding new images and photos to the possible choices is simple and quick. Try new pictures and if they don't work for you just delete them from the possible choices in the "My logon screens" window.

Pros
Does what it says, unintrusive.
Cons
Confusing at first creating your own.
Summary
I'd be lost without this, it should be standard for Windows - the default logon screens are too bright and distracting. This does the charm, and it's free.
