well, in the beginning of last summer, I got bored, and decided to make a boot and login screen for my laptop. So I did. Here is a screenshot of the logon screen. Unfortunately, its really hard to take screen of the login screen, so some things are missing (such as my name, and the power down button).

but to put it simply, its awesome. I cant use it any more, since well, im using vista, but it still works on my laptop. It completely replaces the images, and most text. The boot screen has the kling logo with a gray progress bar.

Its very easy to install, and ill upload a copy later tonight with instructions if you'd like.



its an extremly low quality image, and its missing a good amount. keep that in mind.

here is the boot screen:



I also plan to make a BOTF style one, which should be cool. (I would code more of allegiance, but my desktop is temporarily offline, and I hate coding on my laptops)

also, im really sick (thus i havnt eaten in 24 hours, and am STILL not hungry), and i have finals tomorrow.

so yeah.

Very nice.. For a symbol of klingon dogs leash!


(I'm in Rom character btw) but it is excellent work!

this better?



those black boxes wont be there, and will be replaced by your actual username.

the screen doesnt like to run while your logged on

Oh Wow 2000% better. ( No offence to Klingon players )

luckily ive gotten pretty good at making these things. Give me an image, and ill turn it into a boot/logon screen in like five minutes. really.

I dont really know much about star trek, but i really like that klingon image! Im gonna download it as soon as its uploaded! lol

Edit: When are you going to upload this? I hate microsoft, so i'm willing to have anything instead of!

Ill upload it right away.

Ill include simple instructions on how to make it work, but its pretty simple. I can give you a program to make it tons easier, but only if you want it. The manual way is really simple if your only going to have one. If your like me, and testing them for hours on end, a proggy is really handy. Here is the manual way:

(unzip the ZIP)

1. In Explorer, browse to C:\Windows\System32 and find the file named "logonui.exe".
2. Rename "logonui.exe" to "logonui.exe.bak". This way if anything messes up...you have a backup.
3. Place your new login in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 and rename it to logonui.exe.
4. That's it! Now when you log off your new login screen will be there.

oh yeah, and its 'safe', since if hte logon file is invaid, windows will revert to the simple NT logon screen (it happened to me many times )

Where did you upload it!? lol Cant find it. Assumed it would be under 'downloads'!

here we go. The Klingon logo logon screen, zipped.

Enjoy.

not sure if I should upload it to the downloads.... meh.

put it in dl`s under fan based stuff mate, it`s pretty cool after all.

And you can use any image you want, or create your own? Just by following the instructions? Rom one's brill Skeet
