Customizing your WordPress login
Posted April 26th, 2009.
This is just a little tip for your own fun, or a clients added satisfaction.
At the time of writing, the current wordpress version is 2.7.1, to change the logo displayed in your login panel open the file /wp-admin/images/logo-login.gif and replace it with your own logo.
Some older versions used the files login-bkg-tile.gif and login-bkg-bottom.gif, and future versions may change again so you may have to look for these files instead if you are running a different version.
Easy peasy!
Changing the login graphic is a 10 second job that just helps to make your wordpress login panel feel like home.

Joni,
I did this myself on wordpress 2.7 as mentioned in the post before upgrading to 2.8, after doing so the login screen remained changed so it would seem so.
