Similar, but not near the same quality and not just because one is brighter.
Can someone tell me what setting I have wrong?

First off there's a semi-transparent dark "shade" over all start menu screens. Look for it in "windows" folder on your device. I forget what they're called, but there's two of them one 480x800 one 800x480. If you replace them with blank transparent graphics that will brighten up your start menus.
Second - manila reduces the quality of background images pretty significantly. Try Voldeus Background Tweak or Marinello HDWall for higher quality backgrounds.
Note: Background Tweak is just as effective and much easier especially if you use the "fake" transparency option.
As always read the software directions - there's some important stuff in there.
