The newest build of Windows8 allows the user to change the colour of the logonbackground to blue or black instead of the default green.Get the black version for your Windows7 here.!!Caution!!

Thanks to for the hint.
Background and userpicture in the pack.
Be careful what you are doing. I'm not responsible for any damage of your system. Don't try it if you are not an experienced user and if you have no installation disc to repair your system if somethings going wrong.
This also changes the look of your CAD (Ctrl+Alt+Del) screen as shown in the bottom picture.
It is not possible to upgrade from the green version only by changing the background. You have to change the systemfiles again.
No rereleases of modified versions or use in transformationpacks allowed without permission.

You are surely talking about Windows XP. Open the logonui.exe with reshacker and replace the bitmaps 113 and 119 with a 32 bit bmp of your choice, Check that it has the same size.
Thanx for your compliment.

exact xp
and you make the change of the bitmap but then when switching users eror appears on the line 212

When does this happen? Before you change the bitmaps or after?

I've downloaded and tried it meanwhile. Works without any problem on my machine. This logon was downloaded more than 400 000 times in different variations meanwhile, without any bug report. So i have no clue what's going wrong on your system. I'm afraid i cannot help you.

Okay. I will test it on my computer. Noone reported something like this before.

after .. :/ Surje error after changing the image, sorry my English is very bad and the translator of google does not help much.
what happens is that when I activate the original startup screen (with the photo of gates) fuciona perfect and looks very good (excellent work you did), but when I change the bitmap 113 and 119, to enable startup screen appears an error that reads textual mind
Paser Message
Value creation falied "at line 212
accept
other data with the "Windows8 8165 logon" quite the same

I'm pretty sure you have used the wrong file type. The logon cannot find your images. Be sure you use 32bit bitmaps. They must have an alpha channel wether they have transparency or not. Nothing else works.Check the properties of your files, if they are 32 bit or not. if it is still not working, give me the userpictures you wanna use, and i will do it for you.

oooh that's exactly the problem that happens to me, to edit the pictures saved in 24 bit and I do not option to change to 32 bit ... how I can make this change?
thanks for the help

It is not possible with MS Paint. If you use Photoshop or the GIMP look for an option named "Layer" Select "Add transparency". Than you can save it as 32 bit bmp.

What the official directions to install this? I used the directions posted on another version of this, but when I did I couldn't log in at all and had to use my Win7 install disc to repair the startup files.
I REALLY like the look of this, and would love for it to work, but I just need the proper install instructions.
Thanks.

I can't seem to get it to work with Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit. It's a fresh install and I updated everything and when I change the file properly using Take Ownership and I restart my system it doesn't load the log on screen. It works perfectly with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit but no here.

You are the first who faces a problem with this. Let's see if we can solve it.Open your controlpanel, look for system and click on it. Please look in the properties if it is updated to SP1.
If yes, what kind of message appears instead of the logonscreen?
π: 0 β©: 2
It say Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1... 32 bit. I'm going to install it again so I can show you the message I get.

32bit? If yes, i must have a closer look on the file. As well as i use it myself every day.

I've totally remade the authui.dll carefully and checked it on three computers for proper working. The new file is now in the download. If you want you can try it. If it isn't working, than sorry i cannot do anything more. You see me clueless than.
Thank you for being so kind.

I'm working on it. May last til tomorrow. I'm only wondering why it works for me and not for you.The screenshots above are taken from my 32bit system. Crazy Windows.I will inform you when it is finished.
π: 0 β©: 1
Also it's the authui.dll that doesn't work. I don't get a message just a blank black screen and nothing loads so I then have to turn it off.

It's clear that it is the authui.dll which doesn't work for you. The basebrand.dll only changes the version info. It makes me sad that you are running in such problems.
I try to make a complete workover of the file til tomorrow.I gonna tell you when it is finished.Basically the 64 bit files are the same as the 32 bit files. So it is hard to understand why one is working for you and another not.Hopefully we can solve it.
Please only try it if you know how to make a systemrestore. I don't wanna mess up your computer again.

Really? Man, the first app that was created by me was useful after all! I thought no one will ever use it.
Thank you by the way. I really appreciate it!
