New improved Win 7 Logon screen chenger
section: windows, for your questions: KezNews forum, 19.3.2009
Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversThis app will auto resize you image to fit you current screen resolution. Must be run as admin. Works great.
In previous version of Windows, user had to use third-parry tools like Tune-Up-Utilities to change the logon screen background easily. Windows 7 now supports customization of Windows 7 logon screen officially. Replacing the old logon screen is just another task like changing wallpaper (Desktop background). Thanks to withinwindows for finding out this excellent feature.
Changelog:
* Fixed major bug in calculation. I did an automated test of 100s pics. Seems to work fine now.
* Warning if not running as admin.
* Changed double click to single click.
* Opening the background folder by right clicking.
* Some error handling so you see nicer messages instead of dying with cryptic errors.

stop moaning, groaning and whining. for fuk sake.
where is the download link?
wtf is this shit...? they said there would be caek!
we have looked at a few posts you made, it seems you are a sad person, people don't like
you.
i never seen such a poor and sad group as you lot .crying and bickering over such
nonsense .grow up .... you all have stupid opinions none are better than any one else
just wondering if this is your life behind a monitor or you are really that stupid. i
don't pretend to offend you in any way and please accept my apologizes if you feel
otherwise. it becomes really detestable when someone wants to read throughout comments and
you have made use of your chatting literature to saturate the entire site of no sense
comments. please, give us the privilege and move yourself to a "more friendly
environment" that might go with you: yahoo chats, msn, irc chats, etc. you will be most
welcome there because you seem to have a great talent when it comes to "fashion-cool
typing "... seriously, you need to work harder on your personality now because you may
have serious problems in your life later.
now, back to what i came here for:
i haven't seen any option in windows se7en that allows me to change the logon
screen. what i did find (on the net) was the option to manually do it after rafael posted
about this on his site.
[quote]more precisely, a dword value named
oembackground in the
hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\authentication\logonui\background
key is checked. its data, of boolean type, defines whether or not this behavior is turned
on, i.e. 1 for enabled, 0 for disabled. this value may not exist by default, depending on
your system.[/quote]...
if microsoft does not add the option as a feature in
windows 7, allowing average users to change it with just few clicks, then i see all and
every 3rd party application and "tweakers" out there adding this feature to their apps
as a nice and usable extra. from a technical point of view i see no real advantage for
this to be relevant as it does not make windows 7 more productive at all, simply more
customizable.
cheers
seriously, using 0 for o is so kiddy shit...
and: quotes are the most
important thing... but yay kiddies dont see that...
i wish i could feel insulted with any of your posts. sadly i don't see that happening by
any means. i'm not the one posting no sense comments nor making people feeling
uncomfortable. the problem is that you need to grab somebody's attention and the lack of
skills is killing you. that's called egocentrism. it appears that this egocentric stance
towards the world is present mostly in younger children [wikipedia] which makes me believe
you are a kid trying to show up a personality to others that you really don't have. grow
up, be a man and eventually you might find a way to really "insult" people. so far you
are insulting only yourself.
houston we have a bla bla yoni
djlegion emailed me this app, and it works perfectly!
modified by djlegion.
original program was created by greenmartian (neowin)
source code is included. no
malware/spyware.
this works on previous builds too.
does all this in
one go:
enables/disables the registry key
resizes the selected image to
your current resolution (or any other size if you tell it to)
sets it to 96dpi 24bit
finds the highest jpg compression that would still keep it below 256kb
saves it
as backgrounddefault.jpg in the correct folder (and create a backup if one is already in
there)
changelog(1.0.1):
fixed major bug in calculation. i did an automated
test of 100s pics. seems to work fine now.
warning if not running as admin.
changed double click to single click.
opening the background folder by right
clicking.
some error handling so you see nicer messages instead of dying with cryptic
errors.
simple instructions:
extract windows7logonui.exe from the zip file.
run the windows 7 logonui tool as administrator by right clicking on the file and
selecting "run as administrator".
double click the big box in the middle and locate
a image to use as your login background
click on "apply".
