Lock screen is i3fancy. It uses your current wallpaper.

I checked but I’m talking about the lock screen when you exit Openbox

I’m getting confused here, is this oblogout shown below or something else?

i am talking about changing the wallpaper for the first login screen to the distro when you turn it on

okay got ya. Your wallpaper will need to be placed in /usr/share/backgrounds.

Use lightdm-settings from the AUR to change the wallpaper.

This wont work as far as I know

@redaadaou Do the following

sudo $EDITOR /etc/lightdm/pantheon-greeter.conf

Its a tiny file, one line has a setting for background
also settings for a few other things, hope that helps

Cheers
