Alternate PDC Slate Login Screen

[NetRyder]

Something you folks have to take a look at. I have never used the Windows XP Welcome Screen until now. Always had the classic 2k style logon enabled...until I saw this login screen:

It's a modified version of the Longhorn Slate screen, and it just looks so sec-seh, yet professional. Loving it so far.

Check it out here

i've always prefered the welcome screen if there only say 4 people that use the computer

Well it kinda looks like the Autorun for Longhorn 4051.

Hellooooooo! Anyone in there? Maybe because it's a Longhorn slate theme'd login...

 

[Corvette]

Well the real one has a black background and the Windows logo above the panel

 

[SPeedY_B]

Well this one doesn't.... maybe.... just maybe.... because it's not the real one shocking I know, but also true.

Looks nice. Wish I could use it! I can't use it because I'm on a domain

That's purty, but a bit too dark for me

The real one's just ugly. This one looks so much better with the drop shadow.

Hmm...unfortunately, it's kinda buggy.
Didn't notice it at first, but the when you shutdown/restart etc. you just get a blank logout screen without any text.

Guess I'm back to the 2k style until a fixed release.

Bummer! Was going to give it a shot on the home pc. Thanks for the warning, i'll wait!
