Changing and Creating the Vista Logon Screen

This guide will show you how to easily change the logon screen in Windows Vista, and even create your own custom logon as well.

I wanted to post a brief tutorial on how to change and create Vista logons using LogonStudio Vista. It's a free download from it's website (and the XP version), or if you are a subscriber to Object Desktop then you can download it through Stardock Central or Impulse. Once it's installed, start the application and you should be at the configuration screen.


LogonStudio Vista


To change your logon screen just select the one you want to use and hit apply. That's it, you new logon screen will apply. If you want to revert back to the default one, just select "Windows Vista default" and hit apply again. If you want to download more logons just hit the "Download" button and it will take you directly to the LogonStudio Vista gallery on WinCustomize.


Creating new logon

Creating a new logon for your own use, or to share with the community is just as easy. Just click "Create", and choose the browse button to navigate to the image you want to use as a logon, enter the name of the logon and author and press "save". Your new logon is complete! Another way is to just drag the image you want into the LogonStudio window, either way it's very easy to do.
