If you do not enjoy the login desktop background, you can change it. It is saved in /System/Library/CoreServices as DefaultDesktop.jpg. If you have root account permissions, you can rename any .jpg file as DefaultDesktop.jpg. To perform the operation from your root account: % cd /System/Library/CoreServices % mv DefaultDesktop.jpg DefaultDesktop.jpg.org % cp /Library/Desktop Pictures/Aqua Blue.jpg /System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg % chown root:wheel /System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg % chmod 644 /System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg Think of applying back all permissions: -rw-r--r-- on root:wheel. PS: do not perform the procedure if you do not feel confident with the terminal [translation by Linathael]
