how to change out boot images in macOS Ventura

does anyone know how to change out the Apple macOS Ventura boot screen images? Not referring to wallpapers or any images that occur after logging in.


Had enough of the generic stuff, please tell me there's a way!

you can only make it match your user account's wallpaper. you cannot set it as a separate image.


if you are the sole user (not even a guest account) AND file vault is turned off you can go to System Settings, in the Lock Screen tab,  and set "Login window shows" to "List of users". then your login screen matches your desktop background.


if you are using file vault or have multiple users, the above will not work.  if that's your situation, you will need to wait for apple to address this. it may be worth your time to send feedback directly to apple. Feedback - macOS - Apple
