Windows 7 Logon Screen Changer

by Prashant 30. May 2010 07:42

Recently I was reading an article on some Windows 7 forums on how to change Windows Logon Background. There are manual steps which helps me to change the longon background, but its tedious if I have to do it manually everytime. So I decided to make a tool which can do it for me. 

I start up a new project in Visual Studio 2010 and create a new windows application. I am not writing about how I did it, I am just giving away this tool for use. Just Browse and click Change Logon Screen and you are done.

Press WIN+L to lock your computer and check your new logon screen. There is only one limitation, you cannot select an image which is larger than 256KB.

I will be uploading the complete source code at codeplex shortly. So keep an eye on the update.

by Prashant 15. May 2010 10:13

I am a huge music fan, so huge that I need headphone while I work on my machine and if I don't have them in my head I can't work.Cool It's not the case with me but most of the people do the same thing. But sometimes the things get worsts when people with their headphones on start singing.Laughing Ok they sing only when they know the lyrics and if they won't they search for them and then sing along. It's not the case with me but for the folks who wants to search lyrics for their songs collection, I have created this small tool which will help them to get lyrics, get album name, album art, release date and artist image. Just enter artist name and song name and let this tool get the details for you. I have consumed lyricWIKI, Last.FM and LyricFly web service to get the details.

This tool is build on .NET Framework 3.5. So in order to use this tool you must have .NET 3.5 Framework installed on your machine.
