Nice job riV and VastOne!  Always a smart guy around to fix our stuff just because we're using your SID!  ???

Thanks Jed.. I'm interested in the route and fix you took to fix lxdm if you don't mind sharing

Hello VastOne and Everyone
lxdm
keep the login image of small size; a large login.png can cover the sign-in box.
when that happens keyboard input is being read, but it cannot be seen.

Hello riV.. I tested this one all the way down to 1024 X 768 and it looked fine.

Hello VastOne
I am guessing that
You speak of your background image
(that you have named vsido_login.png)
that works well and looks fine.
You indicated a login.png 140x140 still using that?

You chose a background of size 1900X1200.
Can you tell explanation of the wave.svg
Why is it the size 1280X960 ?

Hi riV. I initially started with a 140x140 but depending on resolution it would get moved all over the screen so I switched to the full screen image that is the vsido_login.png and centered that one with trial and error. The wave.svg is a background scale file that came with the original Industrial theme that I just copied with other files, it has no use in the VSIDO lxdm config
