Bitmap coloring

I lose almost all black through bitmap

from Stardock Forums
Can anybody help me? I have a fairly complex picture i want to use for logon but as a bitmap i lose the darker spots, creating large white splotches. I've seen other designs that have more complex pictures than mine and they work. Anybody know how to fix this. By the way, I'm using a 256-color bitmap.

Also, if you are using a small bmp and stretching it, sometimes it will give you the white spoltches and you need to edit a line in the uifile.

You need to change whatever your uifile says....it's usually line 14 at the top of the uifile....to this:

element [id=atom(contentcontainer)]
{
background: rcbmp(100,6,#FF00FF,sysmetric(0),sysmetric(1),0,0);


The "background" line needs to look like that....

The only problem is that everytime you open the logon in the Logon Studio Editor, it will change it back to the default. So it needs to be done as the very last thing before you post it.
