BE-login: problem with background-color and gradient
Added by Stefan Neufeind almost 12 years ago.

Description
the background of the BE-login doesn't display correctly. At the bottom of the gradient there is a hard line between a light and a dark background.
Files
Experienced this by two people independently but can't seem to reproduce it anymore.
If nobody else sees this, I think we could maybe close it again.
Hi Stefan,
it is most probably caused by an upgraded site, and your browser caching the gradient file from the old previous TYPO3 version:
/typo3/sysext/t3skin/images/login/background.png
This file was modified in 6.0. It should better be renamed to avoid this kind of browser caching issues. If I place the 4.5 file in an 6.0 installation, this is what it looks like:
Is this what you were seeing?
Solution would be to give the new gradient a new filename to avoid browsers outputting it from cache.

At least comes close. You might be right this could have been the cause.
I've been running pre-6.0 from git on that machine but there might have been a few days since last browser-cache-clear or so. Or the background was just shortly exchanged before release. I bet your explanation is right.
Thanks!
Yes, the new login screen and its background were added very late in the 6.0 development process.

I am waiting for some signal from the original author (Felix Kopp) on this matter, as he seems to be currently active on that area (see #43378).
