this is not final. i was just trying to see if i could pull it off...........
look closely and it magically becomes sponsored by empeg
i have not tested it yet so i don't know if the word empeg shows up.
If anyone is interested, i can finalize it with either empeg or rio.

Ok if we -are- doing requests, I'd like a nice boot logo for my alternative player I'm working on, called squash. I was thinking it would involve the huge foot from Monty Pfthon's Flying Circus.

One frame at a time in Photoshop. That is why you see the logo shift slightly once the camera pans out and the WRX goes zooming by.
I wasn't trying to be precise. I just wanted to try out a few frames and preview it to see if it would work.

Whoa, that is weird?!?
The file I posted has a strange one pixel mirror effect at the bottom and a white line at the right of the animation.
My original does not do that!
Must of happened during upload.
Let me know if you ended up liking the boot logo and I will post the "clean" one.

This is excellent skunknumber1. And you responded so quickly!
There are no artifacts when I tried the logo out on my unit.
I want to put this on the site where you can download squash. I don't mind putting up the gif file, however how do I get the file in the raw image format? (I don't expect everyone to install jemplode, and the aniwrite program will write the raw format).
But thanks again!!! I am going to put the gif file up in anycase, and it's of course already on my unit.

If the logo is on your empeg you should be able to pull off the .raw file...
...or am I crazy?

it causes the screen to blink strangely near the end of the boot sequence because the player app and the kernel begin to fight for who's painting the screen.
Is it possible to put a program it the bootup which just waits x seconds, so that longer animations can finish before the player-app starts?
cheers, Thomas

How about have the original empeg logo tony made come up then have the foot crush it. I think that would be pretty monty python like. Or after it gets crushed have the rio logo pop up

Yeah I'm sure you can, but I didn't see anything interesting in the /proc directory. So I guess I'll have to look in the source code of the aniwrite program to figure it out.

Either would be very cool. I just love the Python foot.

ps: I second the nomination to "Boot Logo Master"
Now where did Master Kan go? ...he's the one with the foo to achieve this.

Is there any sort of trick in Photoshop to get a 4-color pallet that would mimic the one the empeg uses? I see a lot of boot logos at RioCar.org that are WAY more than 4 colors and don't use the proper shades. They look nice on the site, but don't work on the empeg.
When I used to make boot logos, I'd do a "copy/paste" from the Logo Editor to whatever program I was using (usually MS Paint) of a few pixels to get the right shades. Then I'd do it all by hand to get it to work right. But this would not only be a pain for 30 frames, it would also be hard to maintain the same look from frame to frame.

I don't know how to do it in Photoshop.
In Paint Shop Pro, it's very easy, you just create a palette and then apply that palette to the image, choosing whether you want it dithered and how.
If I recall correctly, photoshop has very poor tools for working with palletized images, which is why I switched to Paint Shop Pro (it has some useful and easy features for dealing with palletized images).

I am no Photoshop expert and that's why I had to improvise when making my logo. I used the "Save for Web..." feature to save each frame as a GIF. While in the Save for Web thing, I loaded the attached color table I had made. Works for me.

Man you guys are awesome!
Thanks.
Photoshop has a hidden program called ImageReady.
This is what I am using for these animations.
It will optimize you file using any four colors you choose.
Coming up,
completed requests.

Cool. I made that file in Photoshop 5.5. Hopefully it works with other versions.
