Logon Screen Editor for Windows 7

By Admin on 15/12/2009

In an earlier article, we told Windows 7 users how they could customize the Windows login screen by changing a registry key. Thankfully, there is now a quick and simple program called Account Screen Editor created by Bart Ubing which can change your login screen with just a few clicks.

When you run the program, select your language and then just click Set Background to browse for the picture you want to use. If it’s too big, the program will ask you if you want to resize it, even though the quality may be decreased. The only problem with this program is that if you are using a custom theme for Windows 7 that makes the bottom part of the program transparent, you may have trouble reading the button labels. If this is the case, either change your theme while you use Account Screen Editor, or set your desktop background to something dark and use the program on top of the desktop.

Clear Context Menu in Windows 7

By Admin on 04/12/2009

Ever had the Windows context menu (right-click menu) get in the way of what you were looking at, and had to close it just to see what was underneath it? Well that’s where a handy little program called TCM (Transparent Context Menu) comes in. TCM can make the Windows context menu as transparent as you want it to be, so you’ll never have it get in the way of what you were looking at again. All you have to do is download it and run it, and your context menu will be as transparent as you want. To change the transparency, just click on the system-tray icon and move the slider up and down to adjust how transparent the menu is.

Download TCM

To make TCM run when you first turn on your computer, all you have to do is create a new task in Windows Task Manager. You can find a tutorial on how to do this here.
