But you would probably need to set that in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf - that's also where (IIRC, the VM with Jessie isn't running now) you set the background. For other colours I would think you would need to start with the sample I pointed you to and edit that. It seems pretty straightforward. A couple of web searches turned up a few themes here and there, so you could also use those as a starting point. Good luck! Petter -- "I'm ionized" "Are you sure?" "I'm positive."
