I did everything according to your instructions.
I have made lightdm-razor-greeter.
I changed the file lightdm-razor-greeter.conf for such content:
`lightdm-razor-greeter.conf

General configuration

greeter-background = /path/to/background/image to set a background image for the login screen
loginform-offset-x = how far from the left edge of the screen should the loginform be placed.
Can be given in pixes, e.g. loginform-offset-x=60px, or in percentage of screen width, e.g. loginform-offset-x=20%.
loginform-offset-y = how far from the left edge of the screen should the loginform be placed.
Can be given in pixels, e.g. loginform-offset-y=60px, or in percentage of screen width, e.g. loginform-offset-y=20%.

[General]
greeter-background-image=/home/admin/lightdm.png
loginform-offset-x=50%
loginform-offset-y=50%`

The background is not changed! Attached is log /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log

...according to what instructions?

I have made lightdm-razor-greeter.

Do we (LXQt) recomend to use it?

As @palinek already pointed out the LXQt project does not maintain a display manager on its own but recommends using SDDM.

Unlike Razor-Qt it does not maintain a LightDM greeter either. Btw. this greeter seems to be superseeded by qt-lightdm-greeter.

This issue represents a cross-post, the other issue probably does not make sense either as Razor-Qt is not maintained any longer since it was merged into LXQt.

So all in all I'd say you really have to try and address this elsewhere if at all. If so, you should always state the OS you're running and the versions of all software involved.

They are written here: https://github.com/Razor-qt/razor-qt/blob/master/razorqt-lightdm-greeter/resources/lightdm-razor-greeter.conf

Do we (LXQt) recomend to use it?
I do not like LXQt. I would like to stay on LXDE but continue to Use razor-qt

Linux debian 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt25-2 (2016-04-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux
I understand everything better and put the other greeter.
