Tutorial to change Ubuntu login screen

1. First up, you’ll want to find a login theme or two that appeal to you. Gnome-look.org has plenty, and provides a number of ways to sort through them (most popular, highest rated, alphabetical etc). Once you’ve found a login theme that you like, download it – but don’t decompress the tar.gz file. Just remember where you saved it.

From the Ubuntu menu, select System -> Administration -> Login Window.

2. When prompted, enter your password.

3. From the Login Window Preferences screen, select the Local tab. Then click the + Add button

4. Navigate to the login screen theme that you downloaded, select it, and click the Install button.

5. Now your newly installed login theme will be listed along with the others. Select it (and make sure no others are selected) and click the Close button.

6. Save any open work you have, then log out of your current session. Your new login theme will appear when you have to log back in. That’s it!
