osX background & login, boot panel(s).

Oh no!
Ok, I've got an issue here: I've got login panels, boot panels, etc. & the option to overwrite them; only I've got no info on how to overwrite that off-blue background in osX. I'd like it to be white, for instance, instead.

Oh no!
In other words, the boot/login background: not the individual panels, & obviously not the desktop picture once I've logged in. ;)

In Rhapsody/Server 1.x you could enter something like:


defaults write NSGlobalDomain LoginBackgroundColor "1.0 1.0 1.0"


while logged it as root where "1.0 1.0 1.0" is a RGB value in a quotes (1.0 1.0 1.0 would be white and 0.0 0.0 0.0 would be black, this virus the 255 255 255 for white and 0 0 0 for black in apps like photoshop)

I haven't tried this (because I like the blue), and I'm not sure how much has been changed in OS X.

hope that helps.

Oh no!
It's not that one. IMO, this isn't too obscure to be a given option; but if/once I figure it out I'll let you know...
