Remove purple from Ubuntu 16.04
Remove grub background color:
16.04 and later:
sudo -H gedit /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/ubuntu-logo.grub
17.10 and later:
sudo -H gedit /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.grub
And change the grub background color as you want, in my case I change grub background to black (0,0,0)
if background_color 0,0,0 ; then
clear
fi
Then, update grub
sudo update-grub

Change login screen background:
Simple way, you can change the login background using Nautilus:
open Nautilus (in root mode)
go to /usr/share/backgrounds.
cut/move/delete "warty-final-ubuntu.png"
then choose the picture you want ( .png format)
rename it to "warty-final-ubuntu.png"
then move it back to /usr/share/backgrounds.
Change Splash screen
sudo apt-get install 'plymouth-theme*'
sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
Ubuntu studio is the best
