So what I'm trying to accomplish is making the Login Control look different on different parts of the site. 

Example:  User is on the "Business Center" portion of the site, I would like a login control that says: 

Business Users Login

Username [...............]

Password [...............]

New Business user?  Register here.

Then I would like to use the login control on a different part of the site, say for Education Partners.  Example:

Education Partners Login

Username [...............]

Password [...............]

New Education Partner?  Register here.

I was thinking I could create two containers, one for business login and one for education partner login which would have the actual text "Business Partner Login" or "Education Partner" respectively, and then use those containers and drop in the login control which would contain just the user entry portion.  Is this an acceptable solution?  Any other ideas?

This would also mean I would have to modify the "look and feel" of the login control, correct?

Thanks in advance!!

Your container process should work just fine for the title.

THe part that is tricky and not really possible is the changing of the text to get your "New Business User?" and "New Education Partner?" items.

"not possible" as in "NOT possible", or "difficult".. couldn't I create my own SignIn control, basically a copy of the original signin control, just modify it for my needs?  Where does the actual text, "Register" and "Forgot Password?" come from?  I was looking at the ~/DesktopModules/AuthenticationServices/DNN/Login.ascx, is this the control that handles login?  I assume it is, only I don't see a section where it drops on the Reg and ForgotPW text.
