‘Start Windows 7’ theme
Since Windows 7 is just about to launch on 22nd of October ( 12 days left! ), I decided to make this theme dedicated to Windows 7 itself. The Windows logo is surrounded by what Windows 7 is all about, where as the white color stands for the simplicity of doing things in 7 (compared to Vista of course 
). The theme is available free for download and works only on Windows 7. Check out the screenshot below for a preview.

Easily change your Logon Background in Windows 7!
Rafael from WithinWindows has done it again. He has discovered a new logon UI background customization trick that Microsoft has put in Windows 7 for OEMs. It requires a registry change and a few folder changes but does it without the need of any third party tools or hacks.
This does require a bit of work to get it working. First of all you’ll have to enable the functionality in the registry by creating ( if missing ) a DWORD value named OEMBackground in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background and enable its value to 1 or to 0 if you want to disable the functionality. Or you can just use this registry file I created, to quickly enable it.
