Vertus Fluid Mask. It's a plug-in for PS and a standalone app that you'll love for cut outs. I can cut out and entire person in a matter of 2 minutes if that.

Nice job on the ones you done though. Definetly not knocking those :)

I have but I can't find a font I'm happy with yet and I have no patience to make them myself.

ok I just made up some opera loading screens, but I don't know the name(s) or locations of the files to replace... can you help me out?

*edit* ok I figured out the name of the file (splash_218x170_a.png) but I don't know how to load a portrait and landscape version, so I modified these (see attachment) to work in portrait or landscape... just overwrite the existing splash_218x170_a.png file in the windows directory

here is the splat.wav I'm using with RangerPain's apple_squish.gif... It is timed perfect on my phone.. But since some phones boot faster than others, it may or may not be in sync on other phones...

n00b here, I was able to replace the welcomehead.192 with the joker one, but I can't for the life of me get the apple squisher to work. I want to replace the Sprint animation with that one. I'm running stock sprint rom on my TP, anything I'm missing?

1. just rename the file to "Startup_640x480.gif" and drop into the Windows folder on your device. Then restart it. You will lose the original file though.

2. the second option is to modify your registry to point to the new file.

here is the registry location where you indicate the file you wanna use.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation]
"GifSpeed"=dword:00000040
"ShutDownWav"=""
"ShutDownGif"="\\Windows\\animated_HTC.gif"
"ShutDownAsStartup"=dword:00000000
"StartupWav"=""
"StartupGif"="\\Windows\\Startup_640x480.gif"

Change "StartupGif"="\\Windows\\Startup_640x480.gif" to the path of the file you wanna use. Save your changes and reboot your device.

Ok, I recommend you use method #1. Just make sure you backup your original .gif file before dropping the newly renamed file into your Windows folder.

Re: Splash screens and startup animations

Advanced config didnt work for me either. I would set the path but it would never show on startup. I renamed the startup animation to Startup_640x480.gif then put it in the Windows folder. Then I went into the registry and made sure that it pointed to the Windows folder and the Startup_640x480.gif file. Works like a charm now.

Re: Splash screens and startup animations

if you used ppckitchen to cook your rom, and did not include startup animation oem, nothing will display, just a note for some

Re: Splash screens and startup animations

Which .gif are you using? I changed my welcomehead as well. I have no issues now. I am using the htc crushing apple gif that was posted here. Outside of what I have already described here I really dont know what to say.

In the registry you can point it to where you have it.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation]
"GifSpeed"=dword:00000040
"ShutDownWav"=""
"ShutDownGif"="\\Windows\\animated_HTC.gif"
"ShutDownAsStartup"=dword:00000000
"StartupWav"=""
"StartupGif"="\\Windows\\Startup_640x480.gif"

Change "StartupWav"="" to the path of the file you wanna use. Save your changes and reboot your device.

actually it will work like that just fine. I copied the same file size that my original welcomehead file was. It stretches just right to fit the screen, give it a try

I have noticed the same thing. It seems to automatically size the pics.

Mine actually varies - i think its dependent on how fast your phone loads. When I first did it, it would splat before the HTC symbol even came down. After a couple of resets, its working great now.

Heck, i reset it just so I can see it now!!!
