Ok the pic posted by Mr. Bill wouldnt work for the start up but did work for the background. The one from my original thread worked for the start up but does have a thin double lap on the right. At least they are both changed now! Thanks guys!!

Thank you, I have a question for you, I was reading on a Pioneer avic forum to make a startup screen for the 920 you have to have a pictire in 800x424 and increase the up and down to 480, So you strech the 800x424 to 800x480, If you don't do ths the picture will look odd, Have you heard this?
Thanks again.
Bill
didn't see any posts that talked about the pixel aspect ratio of the AVIC-X920BT so I thought I would share this information:
The AVIC-X920BT display is 5.3125 Inches x 2.8125 Inches = 1.889 Aspect Ratio
The AVIC-X920BT resolution is 800 Pixels x 480 Pixels = 1.667 Aspect Ratio
In other words, the pixels are NOT square like on a digital camera or computer monitor. If you simply crop an image to 800x480, it will look vertically squished on the AVIC-X920BT screen.
To get the aspect ratio correct, resize your image to 800x424 keeping the original aspect ratio. Next, vertically stretch the image to 800x480. Now you're ready to drop the image into the "Pictures" folder on your SD card and enjoy it on your AVIC-X920BT
Thanks again.

FWIW, I have an x920BT with this 800x480 pic as my startup screen. All I did was save it, copy it to my SD card, and install it on the 920. Looks just fine on my screen
