    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    You mean the splash screen that comes up when the system is booting?

    It could be gnome splash screen or gdm login theme or is it something else?

    Yes, the login splash screen that comes up asking for username and password.

    Well, I know that on my CentOS/RHEL workstation, as well as on my Ubuntu laptop, there are tools in the administration menus to accomplish that - to use another image file instead of the default one that you see when you log in. What version of RHEL Linux are you running?

    I am running CentOS/RHEL 5.3. If you go to Start->System->Login Screen, you will see how to change the theme/background that is displayed for the login GUI.
