I have read an FAQ about this that suggested that I needed only change the chroot(/opt/ltsp/i386) symlink in /usr/share/ldm/themes/default (which links to /etc/alternatives/ldm-theme which links to /usr/share/ldm/themes/ubuntu). This has no effect on Hardy. Does anyone know the process for changing the ldm login screen theme on Hardy?

I now have different greeters for different computers, just by
changing the images and keeping the same name.
How can I change the position of the text box where you type your
username and password? Also how to you change the font next to it.
"Username"
