i have enjoyed all the other boot animations so far, but i am interested in creating my own animations and would like directions on how do that, If someone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

First of all, I know this information has got to be here somewhere within the confines of XDA-Developers, however, I am at a loss. Therefore, I pre-apologize if this is redundant.
One of the first roms that I tried for my TG01 had an animated splash screen with sound! I would really like to put an animation both on the boot and the normal splash screen before windows mobile starts. Would someone be able to point me in the correct direction?
Thank you very much my friends.

Contact Nokser, his ROMs only have animated boot up...
Just search for "animated splash wvga", or look HERE to start with.
If you use a rom with an animated spash just copy over the existing animation with a new one.
If not use Advanced Config to choose the file location.
Hope thats what you were looking for
I think the TG01 is differnet.
I have tried everything like that, I absolutely can not get the animated splash screen to work. Hmm... Nokser must have done his homework cuz I think that is a tough thing to get working on the TG01.
I will message him, see if I can find the secret!

Hey folks.
I've done some searching, and come across a couple tools, and a couple posts, but nothing really concrete.
I found a kick-butt boot animation in the Android Theming Forum, and thought that it'd be cool to port it over to us X10 users (because I loves my X10, and this boot animation). So I went, and I used the other one as a base, making my own PNG's, then borrowed his ASCII Android robot PNG's to do the repeating second half of the animation.
However, once I go through everything, make the ZIP (as a non-compressed file), and upload it... I get just the blank screen of nothingness.
I'm hoping someone can help me fix this, so that I can have this awesome animation (and share it with everyone else).
Attached <was> the animation (renamed to differentiate it from my other ones) in case someone wants to help.
Thanks again in advance.
EDIT:
I figured out what my problem was. There was a blank space at the end of the first line of my DESC.TXT - so it went <width>(SPACE)<height>(SPACE)<fps>(SPACE)
This is BAD. You do NOT want any spare whitespeace in your desc.txt file. Any whatsoever. Single space, not double, and no extras at the end.
Thanks again to everyone else who started threads on this, who were able to help me figure it out.

OKay just saw the cursom boot animation request thread but I thought I would offer a place that people that have made personal animations to just link for others....I only have one I might make more but just wanted to share it....it is Transformers 3 intro into Sentinals Eye but it ends Saying Transformer Prime....the "S" (from Transformers) shatters and "Prime" fades in....
It is a bit glitchy but I am not sure how to fix it...in my editor it looks fine.

PS: First of all I am not an expert in any way, I just wanted my boot animation like this...the settings in desc could probably be optimized more and also the boot time I think take a bit longer due the length of the clip and the resources needed....feel free to edit as much as you would like
AND PLEASE POST ANY BOOT ANIMATIONS YOU WANT TO SHARE
Your links are broken. Except for the last one.
Thanks for that...fixed now
If anyone is looking for something custom feel free to hit me up, I am more then willing to help out. Let me know what you are looking and we can hash it out. I have been building boot animations for the primalicious rom.

How do you setup a custom boot animation, been wondering this for while....
I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of your favorite theme creating guide. I want to start working on my own. Any advice or opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I want to design an animation for my app. Users click "boost now" icon and it boosts his phone while displaying a fancy animation.
Problem is I have no clue how to do these animations. I'd like your input on how to do it, I'm familiar with android but haven't done any fancy graphics.
Here's two boosting functions I'd like to try and learn from:

Please guide me to reasources/tutorials on the subject. I apologize if my question is not specific, I'm just clueless.
There is a guide at /showthread.php?t=1852621 .
To put it simple: A boot animation is just a bunch of png files, which are displayed at a certain rate.
So no fancy animations or gifs, I hope you are not too sad about it .
