To **design a custom login page**, you control four things: the background, the logo, the login box colour, and the button colour. Together they decide whether the system reads as yours.

## Why the login page is worth the effort

It is the only screen every single user sees, every single day, before doing anything else.

- A default page that looks like a third-party product
- No brand recognition for clients using a portal
- Nothing distinguishing your system from any other
- A first impression made by someone else's design

## Decisions to make

- **Background image** — full-bleed, high resolution, carrying your visual identity
- **Title text** — a greeting or instruction above the login box
- **Logo** — transparent PNG usually works best over an image
- **Login box colour** — rarely transparent, since it competes with the background
- **Button colour** — your primary brand colour, for the clearest call to action

## How to configure it in Jestor

1. Open the white label settings in **Jestor**.
2. Add a title and upload your logo.
3. Select the background image — paste or upload it directly.
4. Set the central box to a light, near-white tone so the form stays legible over the photo.
5. Set the button colour and save.

## Why choose Jestor for branded access?

**Jestor** applies the change immediately on save, so the page can be adjusted and reviewed in a single sitting rather than through a deployment cycle.

The advice on transparency is practical: a transparent login box works over a light, plain image and becomes unreadable over a busy one. A near-white background is the safer default.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Should the login box be transparent?

Usually not — it competes with a busy background image.

### Why does my image look pixelated?

The file is too small for the screen; use a higher-resolution image. See [jestor.com](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com).

### Do changes apply immediately?

Yes, the page updates as soon as you save.
