Windows 7: Logon Picture Frame?

curtranhome · 16 Feb 2013

I didnt do much looking around for this because I didnt know how to word it. But is there a way to change the logon picture frame for the user? Maybe a registry thing? I'm ok with editing system files if that's the case.

Thanks,
~Curt

They are bitmaps in the authui.dll in C:\Windows\System32 and if you are using 64 bit they are in both C:\Windows\System32 and C:\Windows\SysWOW64

Ok, thanks! If you don't mind me asking, how did you change your UI in the third screenshot?? That definitely looks pretty interesting to do

Jerry, how exactly to change the frame then? I don't understand, your post just shows the location. what does this mean?

You're supposed to open the file in a dll editing program (I use Reshacker) then the delete/edit the folders with the numbers he mentioned.

You're welcome

The UI is a custom theme Tavaris by ~charleston2378 on deviantART and I have edited it and some .dlls.

You will need to do 1 of these 2 ways of Enabling custom themes for it to work.
