When Linux Mint (Cinnamon) boots to the login screen, a background is loaded, and if I recall correctly, back in the days of Linux Mint 17.x, the background screens included a graphic identifying the version of Linux Mint that was installed; for example, "17.1". I really liked that background; however, I can't find a similar one in the collection that's included with Linux Mint 20.2 (Cinnamon).
Note: The backgrounds should appear in a folder under Preferences > Backgrounds > Linux Mint
Does such a screen exist, and if so, where can I find it?
Thanks, guys.

Just use any drawing software (you may edit using Drawing, GIMP, some online editor, Inkscape or even take a screenshot from LibreOffice).

I wasn't able to find one with the current version number in the graphic, but I DID find these, which I DO like:SimonPeter wrote: ⤴Tue Dec 07, 2021 1:20 pmJust use any drawing software (you may edit using Drawing, GIMP, some online editor, Inkscape or even take a screenshot from LibreOffice).

I'm going to work with the newly downloaded graphics that I referenced above. It's easier for me.
