I've managed to change the background on my desktop, but I can't find where to change the background of the screen when the user list is up. You know, before you log in to your user, there's a background, but it's still set as the space default one.
Anyone know?

Also,

Since I downloaded Firefox, every single time I log on, the window opens with the firefox icon on it, telling me to drag it to the applications folder. I've already done this, so how do I stop the window from opening up?

+rep to first people to solve problems

Edit: Actually never mind. Didn't read it fully.
2.

Not sure, but make sure you actually moved the full application to the "Applications" folder and eject the removable file on the desktop.

If you want to change the background behind the User Login window.


Get your image you want to use, rename it to DefaultDesktop (making sure the image is PNG)

Drag the image into the following path

It may ask you to replace, then authenticate. Simple.

Oooh cool, Didnt know you could change the thing behind the login window.

About the second part, I presume you have FireFox working. Have you ejected the dmg? If you have, just delete it :) If not, I guess its the fact the dmg hasn't been ejected yet :)
