How To: Have Custom log-on Screen in Windows 7




Log-on Screen is the screen that is presented to you when you login to your computer(start it). It is really cool to have your picture or any custom picture there to impress your friends!

Tutorial:
=======

Step 1: Press "Start" and type "regidit" in "search programme and files"

Step 2: Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Logo​nUI\Background 

Step 3: Double-click the DWORD key called OEMBackground and set the value to "1"

NOTE: if you can't see the DWORD key, just create a new one and name it as "OEMBackgrounds" and set the value to "1"

Step 4: Now put your desired photo to this folder " %windir%\system32\oobe\info\backgrounds " but keep in mind the picture should br less then 256 kb and the dimensions should be same as older picture present there.

Step 5: Now just reboot your computer and you will have the Picture :)

Hope you liked it!
