Customize the Apple Boot Image

BootXChanger

Want to impress your Mac Addict buddies or surprise the typical Mac user? I stumbled upon an Application called BootXChanger that will let you change the normal Apple boot logo.

There are a few restrictions: you must keep the background color the same grey (#BFBFBF in hexadecimal) and the image can only contain less than 100 colors. Save your image as a GIF or PNG-8 in Photoshop and you’ll be set. Further instructions are at the Official Site for BootXChanger. Did I mention this Application is free?




What did you learn in this post?
Or did it leave you with further questions?
