Anyways, thanks for the info. Hopefully I can break open photoshop and play with the image to get it be smaller by downing the rez or something.

And as always, my highest praise for your prompt, professional, and accurate response Keith! You are the best! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-logon-wallapaper-is-pixelated-with-nvidia-surround/?ID=dedb518b-089e-4a07-9e09-0e96d7ad14a6#2 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 19:26:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-logon-wallapaper-is-pixelated-with-nvidia-surround/?ID=dedb518b-089e-4a07-9e09-0e96d7ad14a6#2 DisplayFusion Yeah, that's unfortunately a Windows limitation. Windows won't allow a Windows Logon Background image that's larger than 240 KB, so it has to be heavily compressed in order for it to work ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-logon-wallapaper-is-pixelated-with-nvidia-surround/?ID=dedb518b-089e-4a07-9e09-0e96d7ad14a6 Fri, 12 Sep 2014 01:43:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/windows-logon-wallapaper-is-pixelated-with-nvidia-surround/?ID=dedb518b-089e-4a07-9e09-0e96d7ad14a6 DisplayFusion I am using the Windows logon custom wallpaper function of fusion to place a a 5760x1080 image as my login wallpaper, and the image appears significantly pixelated. I have set both my desktop and logon wallpapers as the same image file to be sure, and the desktop image appears normal at the expected resolution, while the logon image fails to do the same.

While I have used display fusion for several years this is a function I just started using recently, so I cannot claim that this is a new issue with the program. It also may be that having a full resolution image of that size is just not doable for Windows, rather than a problem with Display Fusion.

I can provide screenshot examples of both wallpapers if no one else can reproduce the effect, but I will wait until requested to do so because screen shotting a windows logon screen is a bit of a hassle.
