Is customizing the login screen possible?

Hi,

I know you can modify the lockscreen's background image, but what I would be interested in is using my desktop wallpaper as the background of the login screen (where I input my password), right after the lockscreen.

I haven't found anything about it, am I the only person interested in doing that?

Thanks for any reply :)

Edited because uncle Tom didn't read the question properly.
Not sure about changing the logon screen image, but changing the colour is easy enough.

The settings are stored at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent

Create a DWORD value named "StartColor" and set this to the hex value of your preferred colour
Create a DWORD value named "AccentColor" and set this to the hex value of your preferred colour

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent

Create a DWORD value named "DefaultStartColor" and set this to the hex value of your preferred colour

Hope this helps
