Editor's review of LogonStudio Vista

"Redo your log-in screen"

LogonStudio is another entry in the excellent line of environment-controlling programs from Stardock. Although it's easy to swap in a new background wallpaper onto your screen, the "Log In" screen is another story. This app makes it just as easy to customize that screen, too.

LogonStudio Vista comes with four main options: Load, Download, Create, and Upload. Load lets you use Stardock's theme packages, while Download takes users to Stardock's WinCustomize.com community, where they can download free background images. Create lets you load a standard image format, like JPEG, into the program's database, and Upload takes users to WinCustomize.com to share their designs with others. The layout is familiar and basic, with the options in the narrow left nav and the main window filled with thumbnails. The app comes with four extra backgrounds to get you started.

We found the process to get a basic JPEG image onto our screen to be a bit convoluted, with the program needing the image to be loaded via the Create option, but once there it was easy to use. The option labels are a bit confusing, but other than that this is a fairly reasonable piece of freeware for those who want to doll up their Vista log-in screens.

"Perfect software for changing logons for Vista"

by Mrsone on December 26, 2007

Pros: This software works perfectly for changing logons for Windows Vista. The logons that come built in with this free software are great, and you can get more by going to Stardock's wincustomize .com. I have a great universe picture for my logon, and everyone who sees it asks what I did to Windows to get it to look like it does. This really works seamlessly to add another level of customization to Windows. It is totally free, so you don't even have to pay for it. You can't loose with this!

"Great Application"

by Syed Fahim Inaam on June 14, 2008

Pros: Have been a Stardock User for years and was thrilled to find when LogonStudio was announced for Vista.
Changing your Logon Screen has now become a dream especially with all the Logon screen options available on the wincustomize site.
Above all, this application is free and its user friendliness makes the experience fun.
If you like to customize the way your OS looks - this is the ticket.
