...variation. It's a variation of the GDM login theme "LiNsta" found here (http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=31421).

Anyway, here is a screen. I couldn't take a screen of the login theme, so I refabricated it in GIMP. This is what it mostly looks like, tho. (off by a couple pixels):

(click for larger)


Its optimized for (contrary to the original theme "LiNsta") the 1280x1024 resolution. I haven't tried it on any other resolution. If you would like to try it out, download from here: (right click save as)


Files:

GdmGreeterTheme (http://www.freemediaresources.com/GdmGreeterTheme.desktop)
Layout XML (http://www.freemediaresources.com/LiNsta-Gnome.xml)
Background Image (http://www.freemediaresources.com/bg.jpg) (from http://aeiko.net/desktopography/)
Login BG (http://www.freemediaresources.com/login.png)
GIMP File for Login BG (.xcf) (http://www.freemediaresources.com/login.xcf)


Install:

1. Create a new folder in your /usr/share/gdm/themes
2. Download all files and place in folder
3. Nav to System>Administration>Login Window, and select newly installed theme.
4. To view, logout.


If this is in the wrong section, sorry, but I hope you like it as much as I do.
