Prepare to release our LXDE greeter for LightDM.

I forgot to say.
After editing your /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file, please restart lightdm
or reboot.
Remember to backup the config file before playing with the new greeter.
Finally, if you have glade installed, configure with option --with-glade
while compiling the source code.
Then try to
open /usr/share/lightdm-gtk-builder-greeter/themes/Industrial/greeter-gtk2.ui
with glade-gtk2.
You can customize the theme or create new themes with glade in a WYSIWYG
way.
Cheers!
