FAQ (Could be lol)

Q: Why do you make this repo? You can contribute to the change-gdm-background right?

A: Yea... I can contribute there, in fact i did. But the thing is the repo name is "change-gdm-background" so i decided to make this one.

Q: Why it doesn't work on my machine?

A: As the "Tested on" section above, i can only guarantee the script will work on those distro / release.

Q: Will it have the functionality to make gradient color as GDM Background?

A: Well, it depends. Personally the "gdm.css" is a css file but also not. It can't set linear-gradient like css but have 3 props to set a gradient as background, plus the gradient can only be vertical or horizontal. But if people demand it, i'll add it.
