It is possible, but your best bet (as was just said) is to use the photoscreen saver. It can all be done though GPOs
http://deployhappiness.com/setting-the-default-logon-screensaver-with-group-policy/ this will allow you to point it at a local path and have windows move files to the local folder.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Windows 7 Logon Screen Screensaver

This is a long shot, I believe, but members of this group have answers.

On our Windows XP Pro student use computers, we have a custom screensaver app that runs at the logon screen and displays graphics highlighting library services and programs.   As we migrate to Windows 7, new security introduced by Microsoft limits access to custom applications when the logon screen is displayed, and we haven't figured out how to push the screensaver to the machine.   For obvious reasons we need to move to Windows 7.

Does anyone have a solution that pushes a custom screensaver to the Windows 7 logon screen?   Thanks.
