Soft Flower Gnome GDM
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
I liked so much this wallpaper posted by Alessandro Manitto that I made a GDM. Enjoy! And tell if something is screwed with it, because I did not spend much time "testing".
PS: Alessandro, great pic! ,-))
1) I made it a bit more clear, shifting all text to the right.
2) Fixed a "problem" that did not display the full text of login error messages. Thanks to all who voted high for this GDM!
3) Tried to fix a bug in the .desktop file which caused the theme to not appear as installed in the GDM list. I am not sure if i really solved the problem, since i never had this problem on my system. So, please -- if you encounter any problems, let me know.
4) Again, tried to fix a bug in the .desktop file which caused the theme to not appear as installed in the GDM list.
Thanks to Sergey Kishchenko.

Hi. You cannot install the old themes for GDM 2.20.x to GDM 2.30.x (as far as I know).

That is the best GDM Theme i have ever seen
Hi, How do i install it ??
Here's how. Click System (on your toolbar), then Administration, then Login Window. GDM will open up on your screen (titled Login Window Preferences). Just drag the tar.gz file into the window and it'll ask you if you want to install it.
nice nice.
Now, it is my favourite GDM theme, surely one of the nicest I have seen.
all credits and thanks go to Alessandro for the nice picture ,-)
i'd get my ass kicked for having this and the related theme items on my desktop. ;) j/k. good work.
