Here's a Summary of the steps needed
to customize your opening screen.

I used Photoshop to create the initial image,
but any image creator will work.


Photoshop

Using Photoshop or MS Paint, create your initial image.
    The native screen resolution is 128(H) x160(W)  (4:5 ratio).
    Final Format must be .bmp  (256 bit)


Microsoft Paint

Right click on the new image and open with Microsoft Paint.

Save the new image using
     File / Save as / BMP Picture
     Assign a  .bmp  file name
     Save as Type:  256 Color Bitmap


Uploading the Image

Open the DMR FW upgrade software
 
 
Select: "Open file of BMP" and enter the location of your image.
Select: "Download file of BMP" and watch the status bar.
 
 
 
 
That's it...
You've just loaded your own Customized image.

Here's the one I created for my 2017.
You can download and use this one if you wish.
 

 
Right Click to Save

Have fun and Enjoy your New Toy.
