I want my log on GUI screen

I'm using XP Pro for my home and in the beginning, I liked the way you could log on different users by choosing their icon from the log in screen. My teenage son, in his infinite wisdom, has lost the log in screen for the rest of us and now I get the traditional log in interface. Security on this machine is not a high priority and I just want that GUI screen back. How do I get it back?

Hi Russ,

Start- Control Panel- User Accounts- "Change the way users log on and off" -
check "Use the Welcome Screen".

Go (at a logon with Admin rights) to Control Panel - User Accounts.
Click 'Change way users logon' and then take 'Use Welcome screen'
