The shape looks like a backlight issue? Try looking at a black screen

How does it show up on other colours?
looks like a bad panel....thats not backlight bleed.
Well, I know one thing for certain. That's definitely an S-IPS panel. LG IPS panels are crap. That's one of several defects I've seen with LG IPS panels. I think it's a form of image persistence because it goes away after being off for a while, but I'm not sure. Get it replaced if you can, but there's no guarantee the replacement won't start doing the same thing several months down the line.
wow i had the EXACT same thing happen on a 2005 fpw. even the shape of the "stain" looks exactly like what i had. i started noticing it after about a year of use. i returned it to dell for a replacement.
Took me a while to explain it to them too but they are sending me a replacement.wasnt too bad. spent about 45 minutes with a very polite indian lady trying to explain what i was seeing. after she finally agreed that it was a defect i got a new one the next day. actually it was a refurb but that one then lasted another year and it crapped out too. i called back, spoke with a new indian lady and after another 45 minutes she sent me a 2007 fp to replace my replacement. cool thing is i still have another year on my warranty.
