Creating a Splash Screen​

Spoiler: Creating a Splash Screen

1. Images should be 400x240 for the top screen or 320x240 for the bottom. There's a ~50px gap between the top and bottom screens.
2. Convert images using this site
3. Check "rotate 90°"
4. Do not check "preserve transparency"
5. Download the .bin file
6. Rename the .bin file to "splash.bin" for top or "splashbottom.bin" for bottom
7. Use 7zip or WinRar to compress the .bin file into a .zip archive
8. Post a preview of the image and attach the .zip file to your post (.zip is preferred, but .rar works too)

*If experiencing a distorted splash screen, open your original image in an editor and re-export it as a .png (or .jpg) file
Don't forget to attach corresponding splash.bin in .zip format

*You can convert .bin files to .png using this

Be sure to post a preview of your image:

and how does it work? If you don't mind me asking, I don't have a N3DS nor use reinand but I can surely make some splash screens for the sake of it =)

Have a 800x240 image and use the website to convert it to a bin and call it splash.bin

You create an image that's 400x240, save it as a PNG (or JPG/BMP I guess) and then use that site to convert it into a .bin file. Make sure "Rotate 90 degrees" is checked, and check the transparency box if you're using a PNG with transparency. Either way though, the rotation is mandatory. Then zip it up and attach it here.

It has to be 400x240, because Reinand doesn't use 3D for the splash screen.

 

[Sachi]

IIRC images should be 400x240 for correct proportions.
Use this site to convert images (make sure to check rotate 90 degrees)

I'm up for taking requests if anyone is lazy, haha.

Here's my little effort splash.

Can anyone accept request? I sucks at designing so can't do it myself.

Would like a simple splash screen with ReiNAND CFW and by Reisyukaku text. Something like this https://gbatemp.net/threads/menuhax-2-0-custom-main-screen-images.401528/page-19#post-5981426

Maybe PM @Louch 雪 Daishiteru? He's the one who made the original image, and who knows, maybe he's willing to help out?

That's the best option for getting a splash screen with the same style. That image would be kind of a pain to edit for just changing the text/removing the L and R labels.

The text would be the biggest problem. The original image is easy to get: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/y...menuhax_manager/data/default_imagedisplay.png

But yeah, going to the original artist would probably be best.

Convert images using this site.
Post your custom splash screens below, preferably using this format to keep things organized:

Don't forget to attach corresponding splash.bin in .zip format


Also, this is my first thread so if I do anything wrong on gbatemp, just tell me.

Oh man I love that 3Dshack design. I'll be looking into making one that matches my menuhax splash screen soon

I accept the request, i can easily modify the menuhax splash screen and add the L and R labels if you want.

That's really kind of you, thank you.

Thanks! No problem! (＾－＾)

I'd be more than happy to make any request
