Windows 7: modifying log-in screen?

Hello, and thanks for reading this already!

 

So, what I want to ask, is it possible to tweak the log-in screen of Windows 7, and how?

I will use 3th party programs if they have an official site, not just a mediafire download link (cause that sh** can't be trusted :P)

 

Thanks in advance!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

I've used this guy's stuff when I was on Windows 7.

http://www.julien-manici.com/windows_7_logon_background_changer/

 

Something like Windows 7 Logon Background Changer ?

 

That's a link to the original site, by the way.

 

EDIT : Ninja'ed !

Something like that is already quite amazing, but I would also like a program which is able to modify things like startup sounds, which buttons appear etc.

But this is a very nifty program, as the 3D thing is unique! Thanks for this!

You can change start up sounds on your own without help from a 3rd party program. Go to Control Panel, click on Sound, and then go the the Sounds tab (3rd Tab on Win 8.1). From there you can change, remove and add sounds for certain things. I've never done it, so I don't know what the limitations are.

It was a good post and idea, and it will be useful, but sadly enough no start-up sound for it. Still thanks though!

WinAero supplies a program that can change the start up sound, my apologies though. I didn't know you couldn't change the start up sound from there.

WikiHow also provides some insight on how to use the program.

I cant remember the details but all you have to do is put a picture less than a certain size (240KB or something) in a folder somewhere and add a registry entry to change it ( you'll have to google to fill in the blanks, its been a while since I did it ;)).

Edit: this looks like what I did http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/change-and-customize-windows-7s-logon-screen-wallpaper/
