Sometimes we feel bore with the default login screen of ubuntu, heemmp, now we will learn how to change login screen. Let's start guys.
You may have noticed while working with the Art Manager that there is a
menu selection (Art > Other Themes) for something called Login Manager.
The Login Manager is your login screen, also known as a greeter—the screen
where you type your username and user password when you first log in to
your system. The Login Manager is another thing that you can customize,
but be forewarned that any changes you make will be system-wide, not just
for you; whatever Login Manager theme you install and choose will be the
Login Manager theme that everyone else with user accounts will see when
they use the machine. Of course, if you are the only one using your machine,
this point is moot.
1: Downloading a Login Manager Theme
In order to try customizing the Login Manager, run the Art Manger, and
select Art > Other > Themes > Login Manager. Once you’ve done this, browse
through the various themes in the list, and choose one or two that you want;
I give you free rein on this one, but I’ll be choosing the theme called SVG
Sakura, in case you want to follow along exactly.
Unlike your other experiences with the Art Manager up to now, Login
Manager themes can only be downloaded, and you have to do the installation
yourself. That being the case, once you’ve made your selection, click the
Download Only button. Once the download is complete, you will find the file
in archive form, with a tar.gz ending, in your home folder, or any other folder
you decided to save it to. You do not need to extract, or untar, the archived file.
2: Installing Your New Login Manager Theme
Once you’ve downloaded a theme or two of your liking, you need to open
the Login Screen Setup window. To do this, go to the System menu, and
select Administration > Login Window. A dialog box asking for your password
will then open. Type the password for the account you are currently using,
and click OK. The Login Window Preferences window will soon appear, showing a thumbnailed list of the greeters available.
You can add the greeters you just downloaded to this list by dragging the
files directly to the list. A small window will then appear, asking if you’re sure
that you want to install the file you’ve just dragged to the list, and since you
do want to install the file, click Install.
To select the greeter you wish to use, just click the round button next to
its name in the list in the Login Window Preferences window, and then click
the Close button. Of course, to see your greeter in action, you will have to log
out first so you can log back in, but you needn’t restart or shut down the
machine. You can then see your new greeter when the login screen appears, though yours may well be different. Happy work.
