Hey! Made my own Splash. Hope you like it!

If you don't mind me asking where did you get the background from? I might end up using this with my system and would love to make a matching CTRBootManager screen and Menuhax loading image to go along with it!

I made the background myself in like 3 minutes, would you like me to send you it and/or make you a menuhax splash?

I made a Custom Splash Screen :lol:
It's like the Homebrew Manager.

Here (PNG-file):

You can find the Bin-Files below. They are named like the PNG-Previews.
Enjoy! :grog:

For ctrbootmanager you should be able to edit the config file to load the same splash.bin file by editing the directory to the rei folder. Saves having two identical bin files on the sd card.

I did not rotate the picture before uploading. I cropped the picture using gimp then exported it since it doesn't fit the 400x240 resolution required. Then I uploaded it to the site and check the 2 boxes for rotating and saving some settings. alpha i think

Try only checking the rotate box. Transparency may be the problem.

You can leave it as is, but just a warning: people may skim over it since they usually just browse looking for the pictures.

No text, so you can add it if you want to.

Um this is the wrong format... ReiNAND only utilizes the top screen. It's not the same as a ctrbootmanager theme since ReiNAND splash screens only display for a brief second. Check the first post again. I think to top image may work though if you renamed it to splash.bin

The first time I tried I had transparency off so I turned it on for subsequent uses but I haven't exported it to png using GIMP. I combined the other suggestion of exporting to PNG using GIMP with turning transparency off and now it works like a charm. thanks

I created the .bin file using your guide, so the splash_top.bin (I think that's the filename?) should work just by renaming it, as you said.

Do you want me to reupload it without the _bottom.bin file?

Yeah. It needs to be named "splash.bin"
