Hiding User Pictures

from Stardock Forums
Hello,

The theme that I am using would look A LOT better if the user pictures did not display. The theme itself has a bitmap for the user picture, but the actual user picture displays over it. Is there any way to hide the user pictures, so that the one set in the theme is shown? Right now I have the theme's user picture, and the windows user picture on top of it, but smaller... so I see the outside of the one I want to use.

Thanks

No, user icon set in Windows is used.
What is the name of logon, do you have a link. It sounds like the author of the skin has used a icon user like image for what is the user icon background.

Here's what you can do: Go into the folder for the logon and find the image Bitmap_113.bmp. Copy that image and use it for your account pic on your computer (open start panel, click on account pic in the upper left corner)

Yep, it is as I said above, the background image when logon is applied only shows 4 oixels all around your Windows selected user pic. The images in Logon do not replace Windows user pic. You could move one of the images in Logon folder to your user pic folder in Windows. You will still however see the background image from logon around it, editing the images in logon would be needed also.

Yeah I downloaded this logon and tested it. Had to go into the editor and replace all the magic pink with black

you can also go into skin studio /userpane and disable user pic from there also.......

Hey Kitty, that only hides it on start menu, it is still used for user accounts on logon.
