Its not a group of monkeys. You fail to understand the point of a computer being on a domain. Because your wok PC is part of a Domain, windows behaves differently. Depending on Domain policies in effect there are certain restrictions / and / or customizations to your desktop and login which is controlled by the administrator of the domain.

Now what user icon are you speaking of? the icon which you click on to open the user manager? Your question is too vague.

i think it's the icon on the start panel

i think it's the icon on the start panel

That is correct Bichur - I am talking about the icon that displays on the Start Panel. I don't see why that has to be a limitation of a PC being part of a domain. I also don't see why Stardock can't allow for that part of the Start Panel to be skinned regardless of whether the PC is on a domain or not. Can't this be "tweeked"?

And you are correct, hiro5id, I don't understand the full ramifications of my PC being on a domain.

You got something against Monkeys?

You can put your user icon in the graphic for the user pane...any pic,any size that will fit.

Some skinners hide the user pic in the SKS settings because we dont want it messing up the image...sometimes we do the opposite and design the image into the user pane...but it will be one we picked.  

I don't think you can blame Stardock for something that Microsoft purposefully limits the OS from doing when the machine it's running on is connected to a network domain. I thank Stardock for being able to do as much as it can with the Windows OS as it is.
