    ok, another small annoyance but...
    i have a high res screen (1920x1080) and with 2 users the login logos are pathetically small, when i click one the single logo is a bit more reasonable size. is there a tweak to increase the size of the logos?

    I don't think this is possible because I Googled for it and I also looked through the control panel and I didn't find any options for it. There may be a way to do this but don't count on it. Maybe some other user can prove me wrong.

    AFAIK there isn't anything to change it.

    I can't understand why you would hate it like that, I love it, especially when it's native resolution, looks absolutely gorgeous.

    I have a 1920 x 1200 screen on my desktop and I love it...

    There certainly is a way to change the font size but but it would effect the entire screen. Still, I don't know if it effects the logo or if you can change it's size seperately.

    i think (in vista) you could use a program called tune up utilities... you could do heaps of things to the login screens and change heaps of icons sizes throughout the os, but hey give it a try im pretty sure they have a 30day trial(and it will stay like that once the program is uninstalled unlike other brands)

    hope i helped

    cheers

    Tuneup utilities won't change the logo size.

    ok thanks for looking anyway. i will keep googling. those pictures are not that size so something somewhere scales them.
    @hustheman: thats right, when i click the user, the one password logo is a good size. i just wanted the first select user the same size.
