For those of you who aren't afraid of betas, we've been working for the past month and a half on a program that lets you create your own logons for Windows XP.

Instead of distributing multiple logonui.exe'sund the net, this program applies the resources themselves. That is, each logon is just a directory with the appropriate bitmaps and a configuration file.

Not only does it apply logons but it lets you easily make them yourself.

It's also freeware.

It's currently just a developer's release, that is, for people who think they might make logons. DeviantART has created a LogonXP section for it to submit your logons.

If you've previously made logonui.exe'sgonXP can automatically extract them to a directory (i.e. you can read in your logonui's and modify them from there).

I'm not explaining this too well (too late at night I guess), here's a screenshot:

You can download it at:

LogonXP dev release

To get started on a new one, you just press the "new" button which will create the standard XP logon that you can modify from there. It also has some layout templates included to make it easy to have your user accounts over on the left, right, bottom, top, etc. (you can make your own as well).

Have fun!

cool program...very nicely put together...but I find it very annoying that on every single logonui I import (or create) with LogonXP it throws "LogonXP from Stardock and Luca Saggese 2001" on it. We know what program we're using...must we be reminded every time we log on??? Or is there some option that I'm missing to turn that off. I'd rather stick with Resource Hacker if I'm gonna have stardock printed on every screen I see.

    • Minecraft Chase the Skies update and Vibrant Visuals graphics overhaul lands next week by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The second major game update of the year for Minecraft is almost here. Mojang today announced that its next Game Drop, Chase the Skies, is landing on June 17. Alongside it, the highly anticipated graphics overhaul, dubbed Vibrant Visuals, will be available too, making the day a rather big occasion for Minecraft fans. The Chase the Skies update has a large number of gameplay features and content, but one of the biggest is the expansion of the Ghast. Now, players will be able to find Happy Ghasts as a tameable mob, letting up to five players ride them on journeys across the skies. To get one, players will have to find small, dehydrated Ghasts near fossil structures in the Nether, then bring it to the overworld and feed it plenty of water. It is also possible to craft dried Ghasts from Nether materials. Other features of this update include a handy player locator bar, better leads functionality, craftable saddles, a new music disc, and more. As for the Vibrant Visuals upgrade, Mojang is touting a visual refresh that lets players witness how lights and shadows affect the Minecraft world. "Fly high with your happy ghast to watch the sunrise reflect on the rippling ocean, make art with shifting shadows, descend into dark depths, or simply sit back and enjoy the vivid beauty of each biome," says the studio. "With updated in-game visuals you’ll see how light and shadow transform the Overworld – water reflects, forests become shaded, fog drifts, and waterfalls glimmer in the light." The currently supported devices for Vibrant Visuals include Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, as well as Android (Android: Adreno 640, Mali-G68, Mali-G77, or Xclipse 530 or higher) and iOS (A12 or M1 or higher.)   Unfortunately, the Vibrant Visuals upgrade will only be available on the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, at least for now. Mojang has said that it plans to bring the visual overhaul to the Java Edition of Minecraft at a later date, but no information or release window has been announced just yet.
    • Once people get use to the square-ish case, they'll probably switch the display to square as well.
    • Why would you think it's not enabled all the time? Because they said so?
    • $100 billion of the $200 billion is in N.Y. State over the upcoming 20 years plus. Obviously 20+ year spending plans are subject to change.
    • I own one somewhere and even got the email from Amazon letting me know about the recall but not sure I'll be able to find it. Haven't seen it in months.
