I use a 2048x1536 desktop resolution with 136dpi. The new Firebird installer looks broken with this configuration. I'll attach a screenshot in a minute. Steps to reproduce: 1. Set your desktop resolution to 136dpi, normal font size. 2. Start the Firebird installer.

Welcome to the Wacky World of Windows Bitmaps. That's the way the API works, we can't change it easily. If you can come up with a good fix (good luck) I'll consider it ;-)
