Creating your Own Logon Screen
1. Please note that this feature is not available in Windows XP.
Under Logon screens, click Create new.
A wizard appears with which you can search for and adapt an image. You can select an image on your
computer or on an external storage device.
You also have the option of first transferring an image from a camera or scanner or starting a Google™
image search directly from TuneUp Styler. In both cases, you save the required image to a location
that you can easily find again and click on Search local drives to load the saved image. Please note
that images found using the Google™ image search may be protected by copyright. You must only
use those images that are not protected by copyright.
2. Optimizing the appearance of your new image.
Please note that the available alignment options are only effective if the image is not yet the correct
size for a logon screen (640 x 480 pixels). Under Background, you can specify the color to be used for
areas not covered by your image.
3. Save the new boot screen to the TuneUp Styler list under a name of your choosing.
You can also enter the name of an author. The newly added boot screen now appears in the list.
Restoring the default
If you no longer want to use your new logon screen, you can naturally restore the default Windows screen
at any time.
1. Click on the Restore Defaults button.
The default logon screen is then automatically selected from the list and a preview opens.
2. Click Apply to apply it.
Steps 4 and 5 do not apply.
4. Select the desired logon screen from the list to preview it.
5. Click Apply.
Most welcome screens are in English, but not all. For this reason, your system may greet you in a different
language the next time you start your computer after installing a new screen. Then, instead of "Click your
user name to log on," the screen might read "Klicken Sie auf Ihren Benutzernamen, um sich anzumelden,"
for example
In this case, you may be asked if you want to use the texts in the selected logon screen, or if you want to
use the texts from the default logon screen in your system language.
TuneUp Styler applies the new logon screen.
You can test the logon screen by simultaneously pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del.
