    • MissionControl has it's own custom Login of course.

    • Here is what I use.

      extensions.joomla.org/extensions/miscellaneous/16853

      It is easy to use and the countdown works well (or you can take it out.) The files are very easy to modify to make it look the way you want. The login is in a light box or you can change it to not be. This is a great plugin for using it as it is or a starting point to make it look the way you want, and it has social icons on in it as well.

      It's not perfect, the copyright information needs correcting and a few other bits but i hope it helps.

    • Has anyone made progress on this? I'd like to use the Mission Control login look for my front end login. I'm not use "Site Offline." I'm using Registered access. This would be a great solution. Thanks, Mike

    • I decided to hold off and J2.5 has a nice feature to switch images...no real need to do this anymore as I bet future releases will focus on making this "much needed feature" more groovy...
