I was wondering if there is any way of changing the welcome screen
background? If so how?

No. Windows File Protection protects system files from change (without a
'hotfix' certificate from Microsoft). That background is within a system
file.

Download Logon Studio Vista and use any background you want!

'PC World - PC World Downloads - Logon Studio Vista'

Did you follow the link I provided?

On that page was a link to download LogonStudio:

http://www.stardock.com/products/log.../downloads.asp

On that page you are offered a choice whether to download the XP or Vista
version.

Since this a Vista group, I'd suspect that you'd want to download the one
for Vista, install it, and then use it to set the Welcome Screen
background to any picture you have on your computer.

I used it a while back, and I don't remember it being very hard.
