Vista - Shrunken user icon at logon/welcome screen

Shrunken user icon at logon/welcome screen

I'm running Win Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 1501 Laptop. When I
boot up and get to the logon screen, even though I have only one user
account, the user icon/avatar is small now - the same size as it would be if
there were two accounts available to choose from. Here's what happened: I got
a replacement, re-imaged hard drive and installed it just fine. As I was
restoring my user files that I had backed-up online, I wasn't able to load
them directly into the active user folder; so, I created another
administrator account to put them into. Upon rebooting, the welcome screen
showed two icons of smaller size, as expected. Once I restored all of my
archived user files to the new account, I deleted the original account. Now,
the welcome screen shows only one account and everything seems to be working
fine; but, the user icon never went back to the original larger size. I know
this probably isn't a big deal but it's driving me nuts not knowing what
happened. Any ideas as to how to get the larger size back?
