2) Install `nody-greeter` and set `greeter-session=nody-greeter` in your lightdm configuration. You may choose to install [`web-greeter`](https://github.com/JezerM/web-greeter) instead assuming you modify these steps accordingly.
3) If your distribution did not originally come with LightDM you must set a default user session corresponding to an option available in `/usr/share/xsessions`. For example, on Lubuntu I can select `/usr/share/xsessions/Lubuntu.session` as the default by adding `user-session=Lubuntu` to the lightdm configuration. Most distributions with LightDM as the default display manager (such as Linux Mint Cinnamon) should already have this preconfigured.
4) Clone the `WelcomeXP` project into its own folder, ex. `git clone https://github.com/mshernandez5/WelcomeXP.git`\

5) *OPTIONAL, BUT RECOMMENDED* Create a `fonts` directory in the `WelcomeXP` folder and place copies of `tahoma.ttf`, `tahomabd.ttf`, and `FRADMIT.TTF` into the new directory for a more authentic login screen. If you have a Windows installation, you can easily grab them from `C:\Windows\Fonts`
6) Copy the `WelcomeXP` folder into the `themes` directory for the webkit greeter, ex. `sudo cp -R WelcomeXP /usr/share/web-greeter/themes`
7) Ensure that the theme folder permissions allow the greeter to read the necessary files, ex. `sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/share/web-greeter/themes/WelcomeXP`
