Logon studio Link and a graphics program - paint works.
open one in edit mode and check out the settings.

for some of the questions you might have, here's a quick link to logon search of the forum Link

Doing a basic logon is pretty easy.
The 1st one I tried went pretty much: open studio, click new, insert pic of choice, figure out how to get the line down the middle to go away, figure out how to change the colors in the top and bottom panels to go with pic, figure out how to change wording in bottom right, move the log in panel around (with a few save and applies along the way to check my trials) - done, my baby was my logon.
Any other questions, just ask.
One of the logon creators will stop by. (you've probably noticed quite a few of them real good).

can't do mssngr at work - maybe later
open studio - click on one, then click edit or click create (new?). Starting a new one brings up the default one which has all the panels. It'll open a window with the logon on the left and an elements tree on the right. if you click in the logon you'll see the different areas highlight and the corresponding highlight in the elements tree. (and visa versa). The link I gave you has 3 screen shots in it. Look at the one in the middle. Center panel is the picture in the middle. It's a bitmap. Any panel using a bitmap would be an image you open in an editor. If you were to click on the pic in the middle, center panel would higlight and you would get properties listed. There's little buttons on the right of elements, click those and other options appear.

So if you click the girl, click on the bitmap button in properties and click edit, it'll open in an editor. That's where I did my clear all and paste new for mine.

I can't remember what's in 'Help' in the menu.
