you need the LogonStudio to apply them....download them from the Logons sub menu under library on the right hand side

No, nothing on this site. It's probably a reg-hack to change it

It involves replacing the msgina.dll that ships with windows. This is a somewhat technical venture, but if you're interested you can look here http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/security/security/loading_and_running_a_gina_dll.asp

This is not a hack, per se, as it is considered a replacable component of windows. Many companies provide their own verions of this dll (such as novell).

I been meaning to build a skinnable version, but time is sparse, these days.

Yea, Im looking for a new Background for the logon screen, instead of the bright blue one which comes standard. A picture, or something that will go behind the logon, just like a wallpaper or background.

Thanks

Not for XP, but for Windows 2000. If ANYONE can give me some insight, it would be greatly appreciated.

Sure! Would you prefer monthly or quarterly billing for that?

I'll also mail off the information packet with my birthday, other important dates and best gift ideas in it.
