In a post a long time ago, someone posted a picture of their logon screen, and there was a violin behind the login box. I really don't want to be stuck with the blue screen, even though I only see it for about 20 seconds a say, it would be nice to change it.
Does anyone know how? I can't find how?

I think I see what are you getting at.

Here's how to do it:

1. Open your main drive, go to Library then Desktop Pictures and you get a folder with a load of pictures.

2. Rename the picture 'Aqua Blue.jpg' to something else.

3. Take the picture you want to be your background at login and name it 'Aqua Blue.jpg', put it in the folder.

That should do it, eyelikeart told me how to do this. I think they should add an option to set this, but it's pretty simple to do manually now.

Nice tip :).

Here's a shareware program that will do what you want and more:
