How to change the Login theme


Hi , How can I change the login theme in Fedora 10. I googled for so long but I am not able to get an answer for Fedora 10. And unlike Fedora 8 there is no option in System -> Administration -> Login Window . This option is no there in Fedora 10 . is it some missing components or do I need to install additional package.

I think I am using GDM, how to change the theme, I am so confused.

Thanks
Peeths

I remember having read an article or a blog on that subject saying that this feature was "temporarily" missing since fedora 9 when they first introduced that new login screen.

I can't say for sure. Personally I stopped trying a while ago. Maybe there exists a workaround, but the fact that there is so little information about it on the internet doesn't look good.

from the GDM mailing lists looks, this feature is not available yet. It seems they recently rewrote GDM and they have not caught up to a lot of features. You can check it out here.
