Greetings, Some time ago I customized the image that appears during boot-up when the system asks you for the user and password prior to logging in. I can't remember how I did it, though, and now I want to change that picture, and can't figure out how. Any help on changing this would be appreciated. Thank you, Rafagon (a.k.a. Alra111)

OnyX allows customizing the login screen if I remember correctly. But un-customizing it will depend on how you customized it... try OnyX first.

Is it the background image you're talking about, or the user icon image?

| This link should help http://www.applematters.com/article/...-login-window/ Looks pretty tedious, but sounds as if it should work. Hope so. Chuck B |

If I remember correct, OnyX may allow to do that too (or at least you can customize everything else on login screen with it - text and image..)

Onyx does allow you to customize the text, unfortunately though it does not allow you to change the background image.

I think MacPilot does let you change that Login picture & text.
