Plasmas have that issue, if you leave an image such as the black bars on either 4:3 or 16:9, or such as a hud in a videogame, or a logo in a channel (ESPN) for too long it will cause image retention. Normally this will go away while watching something else and some new plasmas have a feature to get rid of what, for example panasonic has a white scrolling bar, I'm not sure about Samsung. Check in the menu.

Does that scrolling bar really works? I just bought a G10 a few weeks ago and I have used it several times in between playing games and watching TV. Also after I get finish playing a game I always immediately use the scrolling bar and leave a TV on a station, preferably 1 with no scrolling on it like ESPN or CNN for about 30 minutes just to get movement on the screen. Let me know if I am doing this right or wrong.

I have a Vizio Plasma and couple months ago I was watching a wrestling pay per view and the annouying WWE logo on the courner of the screen was burnt into the screen after words. Luckly it vanished after a couple days. But since then when I watch a WWE program I will watch it on my bedroom TV instead of my Plasma. I dont undstand why The WWE needs to have there logo on the courner of the screen on there programs? And even there DVD's. Ok I get it I'm watching a WWE product I dont need to have the logo on the screen telling me that.
