Hi Sunny,

check "xscreensave" whether it matches your needs/ideas. This says it is 
just a matter of changing a config file ... which might already be what 
you want.

Otherwise there are the programs xdmbgrd and xbanner which might be of 
your choice too. Just look into the documentation, since I am sure there 
is already a solution for your idea.

Good luck
Martin
