How would you like if you can change the logon screen
background in Windows 7 so as to give
your Windows a customized look and feel….??
With a small tweak it
is possible to customize the Windows 7 logon screen and set your own picture or
wallpaper as the background .
Changing the
logon scree background is as simple as changing your desktop wallpaper. Well
here is a step by step instruction to customize the logon screen background.
Steps:
1. The image
you need to set as the background should be a (.jpg) file and its size should
not exceed 245kb.
2. The image
resolution can be anything of your choice. However, I prefer (1440*900) or
(1024*768). You can use any of the photo editing software such as photoshop and
set the resolution for your image. Once this done, save this image as (backgroundDefault.jpg).
3. You will
need to copy this image to {C:\Windows\system32\oobe\info\backgrounds }. (You
will need to create that path if it does not already exist on your computer.)
4. Now open the
registry editor [Start -> Run -> Type “Regedit”] and navigate to the
following key. {HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current
Version\aunthetication\logon UI\Background }. If Background does not exist
Right-Click “Logon UI”, select “New” and then key, and then name it “Backround”. Now locate “OEM Background” (On
Right Side). If doesn’t exist, right click “Background” and select “New” and
then “DWORD” and name it “OEM Background”.
5. Double-Click
on “OEM Background” and set the value data to 1.
6. Now log-off
to see the new logon screen background.
(If you want to revert back to the
default background, just set the value data back to 0)
Enjoy….!!
