Default Fun times with ResHacker

I got bored today and decided to play with ResHacker on the EQ2.exe file. For giggles I made a new bitmap for the LaunchPAD program. Unfortunately it reverts back to the old one about half-way through so it's not as fun. Below is an actual screenshot of the LaunchPAD with the modified background:



PS. I know my wallpaper is pink, but it's from an anime I like so


Edit:
I found out why it changes back to the default SOE image. EQ2.exe just patchs the launchpad and then executes it. Any changes I make to the LaunchPAD.exe cause it to be redownloaded. I was hoping to make it a bit prettier but SOE has other plans.

Edit Number 2:
I tried changing the LaunchPAD skin for EQ2 but alas it does a checksum on each file so we can't change the LaunchPAD, Login, or License screens. Not sure if anyone tried to do that before but I was bored so I tried it again.
