Experts, one question. I have a friend working on a bootscreen for me, and he got it down from 30 megs to 22, is that too big? I am running an HTC Imagio, stock ROM, with a memory card, so storage isn't an issue.

Additional question

Guys n Gals, if 22 is too big, how do we go about reducing its size, and what size is the optimum, or maximum, that we should go?

Thanks!

depends... if internal... wanna keep it smaller...

for htc users there is a reg edit for maping out the file location to the gif... file...

so in theory you could map it to your SD card.. then size isnt an issue...

cause i dont believe there is a cap on how long or big it can be... if there is .... i have never seen it surpassed...

change value to...

\Storage Card\xxxxxxx.gif


if it doesnt work in the SD then try putting the .gif it in your device memory to make sure....
