It's been two weeks since I installed Ubuntu 14.04 and today I noticed my lock screen has changed to a very old design.

ugly lock screen

I am new to Linux.

P.S. at this time light-locker is not installed in my computer. I wonder if it's necessary or not.

light-locker is necessary if you would like to have the original lock screen that Ubuntu 14.04 came with. You can install from repositories:

sudo apt-get install light-locker

    @Whaaaaaat I believe this is indeed an answer. Take a look at the OP's P.S. – Seth Oct 19 '14 at 04:26
  • I didn't found any official mention from ubuntu for this package and it seems that this is a third-party package – mahdavipanah Oct 19 '14 at 05:14
  • @Seth It's awfully commenty and can use an edit. – Kaz Wolfe Oct 19 '14 at 05:22

    @Hamidreza No, it's in the repos. Check `apt search light-locker`. – Seth Oct 19 '14 at 13:50
