Hello! I posted two screen shots of the logon boxes. No-theme and default-theme (bitmaps approx 350 KB each)
1. I used XP Pro's remote desktop feature to connect to my computer and get screen captures with PrintScreen.
2. Software like VMWare could also be used. It lets you emulate an operating system within another one so well that you could take screenshots of XP installation and boot screens!
3. I can make more screen shots it you want if you specify theme, screen resolution (I provided 1024x768), default username, and number of password astrisks (if wanted).
