Ever thought the generic RedHat Enterprise Linux login screen found on the EECS workstations was kind of boring? Want to do something about it? Now's your chance!

I'm looking for a GDM theme, ideally customized to EECS somehow (because we're that cool!) that includes buttons for "language", "Session", some meaningful phrase for XDMCP (remote host login), and Shutdown, restart, and disconnect (which are dynamically chosen based on need). I would also like the hostname and the time to be on the screen somewhere. A "designed by the LUG" built into the theme would be fine, too.

Saturday night, starting at about 11:30 p.m. an unknown shooter opened fire on the Latah County Courthouse in Moscow, ID. When the Moscow Police Department responded, two officers were shot, Sgt. Lee Newbill and Deputy Brannon Jordan. Sgt. Newbill died before reaching Gritman Medical Center, becoming the first police officer in the history of the Moscow Police Department to die in the line of fire. After firing on the police and a man from the neighborhood, the shooter took cover in the First Presbyterian Church of Moscow where he then shot and killed the caretaker, Paul Bauer, before killing himself in the church sanctuary at about 1:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.
