W3bbo has continued to refine and tweak the Patching and XML Package System.   The XML package system allows for easy and simple integration.   So, as a feature (or extra option), we are able to perhaps add and change (default) wallpapers, visual styles, etc.   What I'm wishing for is for Anolis to allow patching of the Windows XP Welcome Screen automatically, under the patching OR even in slipstreaming. That would mean native logonui.exe support (which is what nLite takes advantage of). I'm also hoping for .logonxp support, which is popular among other designers.   What do you think? This would be a nice customization option, and I think it will make a lot of users happy. ;)   NOTE:: Attached some nice looking Welcome Screen examples. Also, make note that Vista's logon screen behavior is vastly different from XP's. W3bbo may have to design a separate patching method if he ever decides to.   Suggestion to develop: Look into logonui.exe patching first for XP Expand for .logonxp support *Finally, look into Vista patching if possible
