customizing the login page for shibboleth

[IAM David Bantz]

You can of course mock up the login page in an application like Dreamweaver;
starting from the distributed version, you can quickly make adjustments to
layout,
add branding and custom additions.  DW previews the output for different
screen
sizes so you get an impression of the page on smart phone, tablet, and full
screen.
[I'm sure there are other web design apps as worthy; DW just happens to be
what
my institution has licensed.]
