A default setup project in visual studio 2008 gives you dialogs with a logo-type image in the upper right of a monitor. All I want to do is change this image to new logo. Don't want to deal with custom dialogs. Any way to just change the image?

In your setup project, go into the User Interface Dialog editor and click on one of the dialogs. In the properties window for that dialog, you can change the BannerBitmap property to any image that you want.

It's a long thin bitmap that extends across the entire top of the dialog. The one that I use has about a 7.5:1 width to height ratio. Specifically, it's a 497x69 pixel bitmap (.bmp). I don't remember how I came up with that exact size, but it has worked for me.

I can't find any documentation, what else is new... I screen capture the setup dialog, paste into photoshop and find 621x86 for the banner image. Perhaps this depends on my system font size? I always run large fonts on a high res display. Also see that the bitmap is stretched to fit.
