./to565 -rle <initlogo.rle> initlogo.raw
convert -depth 8 initlogo.raw rgb:initlogo.jpg
i've done something identical to this to get the bootlogo from FreeXperia converted to jpg
Btw, thanks, very good tutorial. I hate to be doing something on Ubuntu and then have to restart my PC and enter Windows 7 to do the conversion to .rle

just install ubuntu to ur w7's virtual pc and itll be better..

well isnt it possible to do that on windows? coz everything is just to make initlogo.lre I think gimp can open it. also i can open tar files via 7zip. so isnt it just simplier?
P.S. Im using rom based on GDX and i saw there it is initlogo.rle in ramdisk.tar file and i rly dont like that yellow droid. Can i just delete initlogo.rle and it will be gone?

u can create .rle file on windows but u CAN'T pack .tar files using any windows apps because it'll create different permission for the files inside, so ur android system will be unable to load it..
and u can't just open android's .rle file with gimp, once again it is different !!
