Title: Launch Screen Customization
Post by: steveedmundson on May 01, 2014, 07:44:44 AM

Hi. I'm new to UberMix and Linux. I would like to customize the Launch Scree to use a school logo and color scheme. Where do I find these settings and is there any other guidance on doing these customizations?

The desktop is easy to set. Simply open any image and choose "Set as desktop background" from the Image menu in the viewer. The rest of the color scheme is a bit more tricky. There are a few themes in System Settings:Appearance to choose from. You can also search for "ubuntu 12.04 themes" to find others you can install. Customizing them can be a bit painful - the files are all plain text and in /usr/share/themes. They are mostly web css files, so if you have skills there, they might be worth playing with.
