Excerpt from %man pandora
If no image exists for a user, a icon representing the user may be
displayed. The file /etc/passwd.sgi contains a list of users who will be
displayed with a special icon denoting a "built-in" user.
This file consists of a series of lines, one for each user. Each line
contains a list of colon-separated fields. The first field on each line
is the name of the user. Additional fields may be provided. If the fields
"noshow" or "noicon" are present, the icon will not be displayed on the
login panel. The user will be required to type the full username in order
to log in.
Users whose home directory does not exist will not be displayed as icons.
