Well, to get your personnal images displayed in lightdm, you have to
copy them to
/usr/share/backgrounds
And you have to create or modify the file
personnal-wallpapers.xml
located in
/usr/share/gnome-background-properties
keeping this in mind :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE wallpapers SYSTEM "gnome-wp-list.dtd">
<wallpapers>
<wallpaper>
<name>my_personnal_picture_01</name>
<filename>/usr/share/backgrounds/my_personnal_picture_01.zyx</filename>
<options>zoom</options>
<pcolor>#2c001e</pcolor>
<scolor>#2c001e</scolor>
<shade_type>solid</shade_type>
</wallpaper>
<wallpaper>
<name>my_personnal_picture_02</name>
<filename>/usr/share/backgrounds/my_personnal_picture_02.wvu</filename>
<options>zoom</options>
<pcolor>#2c001e</pcolor>
<scolor>#2c001e</scolor>
<shade_type>solid</shade_type>
</wallpaper>
</wallpapers>
If you remove the line <options>...</options> you'll be prompted when
setting your wallpaper what kind of display-mode you want to use (zoom,
span, fill...)
The color here is a a very dark pink, almost black.
An easier, transparent or automatic way of doing that would be indeed
very nice !
