1. Download the stock boot animation to your PC: bootanimation.zip
2. Extract bootanimation.zip to a folder.
3. You should find 2 folders and 1 file: part0, part1, and desc.txt.
The part0 folder contains .png files which boot but do not loop. The part1 folder contains your .png files which will loop over and over again. The desc.txt are the settings you can tweak including how big you want your custom boot animation to display. 320x480 30p 1 0 part0p 0 10 part1 (320x480 = the dimensions)
4. This is where you get creative. In Photoshop or your other favorite image editing program, put together your series of .png files which will replace the images in part0 and part1.
Make sure your file names follow a series similar to this: boot_00001.png, boot_00002.png, etc.
5. Once you have finished being creative, replace the .png files in part0 and part1 with your new series.
6. Highlight part0, part1, and desc.txt and then right click and choose “Add to archive…”
7. Click the dot for “ZIP” and under compression method choose “Store.”
