How to change the login screen?

Is there any way to change the loginscreen?

I've found myself liking the old vanilla login screen or the one from tbc more, than that ugly ****ing dragon roaring in the backround with ice all around it.

Is there any way to change it?

//thnx

i believe the loginscreen is part of the data files that come with blizzard.

there is an addon somewhere around here that changes the default login to black.

Not an addon no.

A set of modification files maybe.

The difference being is an addon loads after you are logged on and have entered the game world. It is not loaded at the login screen.

You might be able to get something that puts stuff in the Data folder thereby providing a work around for files in the MPQ files tho. Some on this site even.

You can't change it since wow 1.5.0

You can't get the other login screens back but you can make it Black .. use the link Jaffy posted.

Never understood why people hate this screen ... I'm past it before the dragon even shows up. AND I even have to enter TWO passwords before I can play.

On my machine, the drake and the sound usually were out of sync. I'd often hear the terrible screech before the drake. Sometimes the drake starts on the screen by taking off, still having its ear-piercing roar.
