Change your Login screen on Window 7

Bored from the usual login screen on laptop or PC ? 
Not anymore, I am here with a new trick to change login screen of your system. Just follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Download the registry file from here. Extract the file and double-click on the file to enable this feature (Alternative method: right-click, select Merge).

Step 2: Now, head over to the following folder:

C:\Windows\System32\oobe (“C” is your Windows Seven Installation drive)

Step 3: Here, create a new folder named Info. Again, create a new folder inside the Info folder and rename it as backgrounds.

Step 4: Copy your favorite image file to this folder and rename it as backgroundDefault. Note that the image must be in JPG format and the size should be less than 256 KB.

Step 5: You are done. Reboot your system and see the change.

The following files (sorted by width-to-height ratio) are supported in C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info\Backgrounds folder:

* backgroundDefault.jpg
* background768×1280.jpg  (0.6)
* background900×1440.jpg  (0.625)
* background960×1280.jpg  (0.75)
* background1024×1280.jpg (0.8)
* background1280×1024.jpg (1.25)
* background1024×768.jpg  (1.33-)
* background1280×960.jpg  (1.33-)
* background1600×1200.jpg (1.33-)
* background1440×900.jpg  (1.6)
* background1920×1200.jpg (1.6)
* background1280×768.jpg  (1.66-)
* background1360×768.jpg  (1.770833-)

And users who prefer to use a third-party instead can check out free tools such as "TweaksLogon" to set your own picture as logon screen background withe a mouse click.

regedit hacks

OK Mates, here I am with another coolest trick ever. :)

Any of you that interact more with websites and like to open .html and similar files in notepad to edit scrpits, this is THE coolest windows registry edit ever.

you can easily do it manually

Manually: regedit and navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\Shell

add the key "notepad"

it's default value should be "Open with Notepad"

now, under "notepad", add the key "Command"

it's default value should be (with the quotes) "C:\Windows\System32\Notepad.exe" "%1"

ok, now exit regedit and go right click on ANY file...
your new option: Open with Notepad

HOW BADASS IS THAT?!?!?!?

I FOUND THIS ONE ON MY OWN!!!!!!

I know this one works on XP and 2000, you can PROBABLY enter it manually on windows 9x, but i have not tested that.

I know maybe not everyone cares...but this was fun for me because i love tweaking my computer AND it makes some web design stuff eaiser for me :D
