JetwingX

iWork for Apple <3
you know the start up screen that has the Aqua Apple and says Mac OS X, I changed it! this is really cool! it's 4 am and i need to get some sleep but later today i will write more on this

(i am REALLY excited!)
 
Not to burst your bubble or anything, but we know. There are plenty of instructions for how to do this, but I personally don't like digging around in the System directory or messing with the Terminal, so I downloaded a wonderful tool called Visage. Visage "allows you to easily customize your Boot Panel, Boot Strings, Login Panel, Login Screen Background, Dock Poof, and Dock Transparency." I love it; my boot panel is a frog, my login background is the sky w/ seagulls flying, and my login panel is the one Visage comes with that has the apple logo as the nucleus of an atom. I had TransparentDock before Visage, so I don't use Visage for that, but being able to easily change my Dock Poof is really cool. You can use any poofs from ResExcellence, which is nice.
 
I only used Visage for two things. To change the dock to that cool transparent type and to change the login panel background the jaguar background.
 
It was pretty good for all on your own. I actually had changed my login background on my own before I found visage, and I figured out how to change the Computer icon in the Finder Toolbar from ye olde iMac to a nice, transparency-friendly Cube icon (a G4 Cube icon isn't worth much without transparency) and I was very proud of myself, just as you should be for this. I was merely pointing out that there is an easier way, and it happens to open up other possibilities too.
