Here you will get ample of Desktop backgrounds, Icons, Splash Screens, Login Manager Themes etc.


Download any login manager from the various themes available under Login Manager Section which is present under Desktop Themes.


I downloaded Morning-Light theme Login manager which had file of following format:

GDM-Morning.tar.bz2


Configuring it is very simple task.


Just find the section called “Login Screen”. Most Probably you will find it under “system settings”.


Click on it. On the pop menu, click the tab called “Graphical Greeter”. At bottom you would find tab called “Install New Theme”. Click on it and It will ask you the path where you have stored your tape archive file. Select your downloaded file and click the “install” tab.

Default Re: Changing your Login Manager Screen in LINUX!

http://gnome-look.org is more varied.

But for an easy way to install art.gnome themes/etc/etc, do this

sudo apt-get intall art-manager

now run it by going to System>Prefrences>Art Manager

It can search and install all files released at art.gnome.org in a point and click manner :]
