Archify Gnome
I wanted to make my laptop truely archified. Therefor I installed first of all the murrine engine for GTK and, to have some themes available the corresponding theme collection:
pacman -S gtk-engine-murrine pacman -S murrine-themes-collection
After this, I downloaded the splashscreen from gnome-look.org (I later recognized, that this is not really needed anymore, since the splash ist just shown a very very short time). On the same page the GDM Greeter is already referred, and I downloaded it as well.
To install the splashscreen, I furthermore downloaded the package gnome-splashscreen-manager from the AUR via yogurt. I just downloaded it, and recognized that some errors seem to be in the PKGBUILD-file, therefor I then removed the last "}" from PKGBUILD and then did a makepkg -s in the same directory to make the package. Finally I installed it via pacman -U gnome-splashscreen-manager and could then install the previously downloaded splashscreen.
The GDM Greeter is easily installed via "System → Administration → Login Window", where the whole package can be referenced.
For the wallpaper, I have right now installed the package archlinux-wallpaper and choose one of those. I have to admit, that I think these backgrounds are a little bit too dark for myself.
Now my system is "archified" and I can show, that I own an Arch Linux system.
