Comment:
In this tutorial there’s a thing doesn’t work, you have to change to first function that is

php
function custom_login() {
echo 'wplogin/wplogin.css" />';
}
add_action('login_head', 'custom_login');
?>

to be this…

php
function custom_login() {
echo ‘ <link rel=”stylesheet” id=”wp-css”  href=”‘.get_bloginfo(‘template_directory’).’/wplogin.css” type=”text/css” media=”all” />’;
}
add_action(‘login_head’, ‘custom_login’);
?>
