Babcock, MCP Sent: 23 October 2007 18:19 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Gradient backgrounds in your forms for modern look I'd like to poll those of you who do something more than just the standard VFP background in your forms about what you do to make your forms look more visually appealing. Specifically, I want to make our login screen look modern instead of the CGA/Win95 look it has now. I thought I recalled seeing how we could make a gradient background within our forms, but I don't recall where I saw that? The goal is to look classy, not cheesy or trashy. My first thought was a simple animated GIF of the corporate logo, but then the gradient backcolor seemed perhaps "cleaner." tia! --Michael No virus found in this outgoing message.
