One of my friends had a new theme installed in his Ubuntu system but the login screen was that of the default theme. He thought changing the login screen is a big task. It is very simple as follows
The desktop appearance properties window should be linked or copied to login window.
sudo cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow.
Instead of copying you can give links too.
When the login screen is prompted again, the background appearance changing window will also be popped out and with that you can change your login screen to your theme login screen. If there is no separate login screen you can use your desktop screen itself. Now you can see your login screen matches your newly installed theme.
After logging in do unlink so that the background changing window wont prompt again along with the login screen.
sudo unlink /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop
