I am having a go at the skinning engine, and seem to have the hang of modifying the existing contents pretty well. I finally figured out how to make things alpha transparent (argb instead of rgb ). Now I am having a shot at making NEW objects in the interface.

Basically what I want to do is have an image stretched over the background of the logon window overtop of the existing background, but under the text and display picture and such. I am not to sure how to do this, and I haven't seen anything in the documentation about making NEW objects in the interface. Is this possible, and if so could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks .
