FWIW, our IT folks have customized the logon screen on our Public PCs so that 
while it still says to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to login, above and below that is 
customized info: a welcome to the College and info on where to get guest passes 
if you're not part of the College community (Faculty  Staff, Retirees, 
Students, Alumni), etc. but it is a static screen. They do have an image or two 
incorporated into it as well.

If that's not what you're after, the ideas already presented about screensavers 
sound on the money to me.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Windows 7 Logon Screen Screensaver

This is a long shot, I believe, but members of this group have answers.

On our Windows XP Pro student use computers, we have a custom screensaver app 
that runs at the logon screen and displays graphics highlighting library 
services and programs.   As we migrate to Windows 7, new security introduced by 
Microsoft limits access to custom applications when the logon screen is 
displayed, and we haven't figured out how to push the screensaver to the 
machine.   For obvious reasons we need to move to Windows 7.

Does anyone have a solution that pushes a custom screensaver to the Windows 7 
logon screen?   Thanks.
