How to change login window background, osx.

upgraded to leopard. omg, background of login window annoying.

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow DesktopPicture /Path/to/better.jpg

thought that would work nice, but so far it only disables the picture, and then works when i set it back to the default.

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow DesktopPicture/System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg


eh, more thinking later.

OMG. Tom Ellard is so cool.

Everytime I read anything he writes, I laugh so hard.

Regarding the concept of "Industry Standards" and using Pro Tools LE as an example:

Pro Tools LE.

It’s been said before - it needs to be said again. There is a moment when you are teaching Pro Tools when you have to explain that if you have an hour long programme to bounce down and it’s due on air in 45 minutes, it’s Game Over. The student looks at you like you are insane, knowing at least 5 other programs that will export that audio in 5 minutes and asks, what is this?

You’ve got two ways you can run this message. Official: Pro Tools HD is hardware based and LE has to fit in with that and besides running the mix through the hardware insures always that what you hear in the mix down is what you get - no surprises. Alternative: That PT needs to pass that signal through that big fat blue dongle called an M box to make damn sure it’s a legit copy of PT. The student looks at you like you’re a tool either way.

When you get to RTAS, they are questioning you again. Yes that’s right, the effects that you use in Pro Tools only work in Pro Tools. Yes, industry standard means no one else in the industry uses them. No I am not a tool, kindly refrain from looking at me like that.
