Linen & Apple Logo Wallpaper from the Mac OS X Lion Login Screen

The image was converted from a PDF file, making the ginormous 3995×2500 resolution a little funky, but if you use any mortal sized screen it should look great.

Just what i was looking for. Thanks!
I’m looking for a way to change the image in Lion. In Snow Leopard I already had replaced the login wallpaper, and no in Lion they have gone for fullscreen bland! Yuck!

This is pretty smart really, better than just a solid colour yet not too fussy .
You’re Welcome…
It’s actually not in the system but derived from a screenshot (cmd-shift-3) just before the user login….
