I found that the Apple logo, for 10.4 and down, doesn’t have to remain 90×90 pixels. You can go as large as 250×250 pixels. Anything larger than that will be cut off.

here is a solution i found …. not sure if it is the best but it seems to work for me , at least i get my login screen back.

1.Find a friend who uses mac ( Alternatively if u have time machine old back ups i think it will work too)
2.Copy & paste & replace the following 2 files from his/her mac or form ur time machine backups to yours

/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist
/System/Library/CoreServices/DefaultDesktop.jpg

(for those who has DefaultDesktop_org.jpg, just delete that file and replaced with the DefaultDesktop.jpg u copy from ur friend’s mac)

Again, i’m really not a expert in mac, so i’m not sure if this is the best way to do it,but hope this will help.

Is there any way of doing this without damaging your system? (Not unless it does…)
