WordPress is being used as a membership site, or site where user registration is allowed. In those cases it is wise for businesses to brand the login page with their logo and other aspects to give it a unique touch that it deserves. In this article we will be showing you how you can create a custom login page design in WordPress as well as showcasing some of the best WordPress login page designs.
How to Create a Custom Login Page in WordPress

Browse the following directory to download Admin panel PSD template to guide you while designing :
