Most likely done like this so they can use it on multiple phones, not just the X.


Certainly that is the reason...but if I can do it lounging on my couch with a MacBook Pro and Photoshop while sipping some iced tea and watching TV....certainly a Moto dev could bang out something nice for each new phone....

I mean...they reused the SAME boot ani for the DX2!...THAT is weak sauce...


Edit: Im thinking of adding the word GingerBlur under DROID X...it would animate in the same way...what do you guys think??

Purple???????? Any chance?

i was hoping someone would ask for it...because i wanted to make it anyway...:p

So, how to I go about changing it?

ive got to put together the zip files (or send them to bouchy to do for me ;)) soon they will be up...


Edit: i've got a sneak peak at something that im cooking up for all of those that run ApeX on ther DX...i think you'll like it...

Oh I know he's using Photoshop. I was talking about the other programs you need to extract the zips, resign files, etc. I've been reading up on it but sorry to say, it all still just confuses me and I can't get a handle on it.


I think I need visual aids......lmao.

If you are just pulling the pngs to modify them, you can pull them out with 7zip or winrar, modify them, and put them back in when you're done, and that's it. If you are going to make other changes like how fast the animation loops, etc., it's a little bit more involved.
