Blur on Chromebook logon screen renders wallpaper illegible

Reported by st-pembe...@shireoakacademy.co.uk, Nov 8 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Add Wallpaper to device in Admin console
2. On logon screen for Chromebook, new blur feature means wallpaper can't be seen

What is the expected behavior?
Wallpaper should still be visible

What went wrong?
The new blur feature means you cannot see the wallpaper.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 27.0 r0

This was already reported in bug 775591 but this issue now appears to no longer be accessible so I am re-reporting it.
 
Agree. Was tracking 775591 then lost access.
Please give us the option to blur in admin console. This helps up easily and quickly identify what room / cart the chromebook belongs to. With almost 2k devices (and growing) and a hundred(s) ous, this simplifies the task greatly.
I was just looking for 775591 myself and couldn't find it either. I thought someone banned me or something. I whole hardheartedly agree with this request. We finally had the ability to customize our devices at the login screen and the very next OS release undid two years of waiting. Attached are two photos. One with OS 60.xxx without the blur and one with OS 61.xxx with the blur. You can't even tell that the wallpaper image hasn't changed. Please fix this or at least add an off/on switch to provide the option for the image to be blurred or unblurred.

Changing OS label to Chrome as issue looks related to be Chrome OS.

Thanks!!

The fix is landed in 63.0.3239.44. Wallpapers set from Admin console will not be blurred.
This is fantastic news, can't wait to see it!
Downloaded the beta channel today, and no more blur, huzzah! I look forward to the stable update so the rest of the school's devices can have the same benefit. Thanks again!
