Creating a Splash Screen

To generate a custom splash screen, use a bitmap editor, such as Paintbrush.

Creating a Splash Screen on Color Terminals

1. Create a color bitmap with dimensions of BX x BY where:
• BX is less than or equal to 240 pixels
• BY is less than or equal to 360 pixels
2. For best quality, use a relatively high resolution color image (for example, 16-bit
color). Lower resolution images will also work.
3. Save the file as a 24-bit bitmap (.bmp).

Creating a Splash Screen on Monochrome Terminals

1. Create a 16-color bitmap with dimensions of BX x BY where:
• BX is less than or equal to 240 pixels
• BY is less than or equal to 360 pixels
2. Be sure to create the file with 16 colors where 4 bits are used for each pixel of data
in the file. IPL will not load if the number of bits of data for each pixel (bpp) is not
correct.
3. Save the file as a 4-bit, 16 color bitmap (.bmp).
