In Trisquel 5.5 a photo is taken during installation, if you like, and used for the login screen.

I didn't set that up at the time, but would like to use a custom image on the login screen. How do I set that up?

Thank you!

Geeky method: resize/rescale the image you want to 96x96 pixels and save it to ~/.face

There used to be, in Trisquel 5.0 and before, an "About me" item in the System/Preferences menu (with a clickable icon)... but it looks like it disappears with GNOME 3.

Back when I was using GNOME 3 on Parabola, there was a way to do it in Users (or something like that) under preferences.

Guess I didn't listen carefully enough; thought it was '.face.png'.
The gnomes also seem to have removed a gui way to set up the desktop
sound theme.

Cheers,

Dave

I think, if you put an image called '.face.png' in your home directory,
it will be the photo used in the login greeter.

I created a 96x96 png image and saved it in ~/.face. I had to replace the image that was there named as face before, the trisquel image.

I can see the hidden image file in my home directory called face.
When I login, I don't get the trisquel image anymore, I get a icon like somebody's sillhouette. My image is not shown.

What do I need to do?

Thank you!

You can go to User Accounts in System Settings and change the photo there.
