I haven't decided which one I'm going to use just yet, if any.

I would chose between #1 & #3

How about something like this?

Bump for more ideas. I'm bored with mine.

As another SWP BRZ driver, I actually think the picture in your sig might make a nice start up screen. Got a bigger version?

Fits right in with all the dials and switches on the center console.

I've been trying to change my start up screen with my own picture, but my Brz kept on giving me an error.
I have edited a picture, changed the aspect ratio to 16:9, made into hi-res picture and saved it into my Micro SD card. When I insert my microSD card in, and look for the picture. It just gives me an error saying "No pictures found. Save files in /Picture folder."
I even tried making a "Picture folder" in my microSD card and it still wouldn't read it.
By the way, I have the Canadian head unit. Which is the Pioneer one. If anyone can help me, that would be great!

Make sure you're saving them as the right format of picture. Make sure to save the image as a .JPG. Also don't put it in a folder, drop it in the root of your SD card.

Micro SD? Isn't the card that came with the HU just a normal SD?

Yes, SDHC. ShibaYuki, are you using a MicroSD card in an SD card adapter? That might be your problem.

I'm using a MicroSD card to put it in my car. But I also use an SD card adapter when I put it in my laptop.

The Canadian HU comes with a pioneer HU. And it takes a Micro SD card instead of a normal SD card.

I've been saving them as .jpg files. I tried putting the file in the root of my SD card, and also tried creating a "Picture" folder.

I see, then you will have to look up instructions that are specific to your HU. I believe the OP only applied to the US-spec BRZ HU's

Alright, I made some progress. I reformatted the MicroSD card into 64bit and made a "Picture" folder. Now my HU can read that I do have a folder in there. Now, that I have put my pictures in the folder my HU still fails to read my pictures and giving me an error. "Failed to read Image". I still have it as a 16:9 aspect ratio, and hi reso picture. Any advice? lol.
