Changing the logon screen involves a file called ntoskrnl.exe.
Be careful playing around with this file as I messed up my whole computer once and had to reinstall.
Good Luck
[edit] Well now I dont' guess you needed my links :( check them out though. they might have some more stuff on them.[/edit]
Here is a little program I have been using for quite a while now.
Xteq X-Setup
It doesn't only allow you to change your startup and shutdown screens but allows you access to a lot of other things in windows that you wouldn't normally have access to and it works with all released windows.
It's a nice little program to have and there are always new plug-ins coming out and you can also create your own plug-ins.
Guidance...
Personally I just don't take the time to make my own. I surf around on ThemeXP.org and download them. There are a ton of places to find bootup screens for XP.
Another place where you can really mod your windows out is WinCustomize.com, and there is always google (that's how I find other places when I'm looking for something specific).
Just a thought...
