Everytime my screen gets locked, either from locking it manually or from it sleeping, it doesnt look like the typical lock screen with the user icon and the background. Instead my background is black, and the login window is the same window as when the computer asks for your password because it needs access to something. its the window that has the picture of the lock on the left. Id like to get the normal login screen, i dont know why i get this annoying screen.

Help please, and thanks!

Double check your System Preferences for your screen and security settings and set them to your liking, and I don't really know what you refer to as "the normal login screen".
