help with xp user icons please

Maybe there is a setting in Windowblinds/XP that I am missing, but I noticed in a lot of skins lately they show no user icon or they show one that has transparencies. Is this a feature of skinstudio preview or whatever other skinning program these authors are using? I just got treetog's latest skin, copperdeck 2, I love it, but I was wondering if it's possible to have a user icon with transparency or something else to make it look nice and go with the skin rather then a white square. Thanks for any help.

Windowblind skins don't always come with a user pic. If it's included it would be inside the zip file.

Copper Deck comes with a User Icon. Double-click on your current Icon to bring up user accounts, select browse for other picture, look in the Copper Deck 2 WindowBlings file and select the Userpic.jpg file there.

You need to download the copper_deck_2.wba file and open it with Winzip or whatever program you use for zip files. The userpick.jpg file is inside the wba file.

thanks guys I got it figured out thanks to your help
I didn't even think to look there. Really I just was wondering how
to make the background transparent but after looking at the .jpg I
see you have to use bright purple. Thanks again for all your help.
