Keep in mind when creating or editing them that the top ~200 pixels or so are covered by the AVIC menu.

Depends on your monitor size. That may be the right size for a 10" screen.

I was playing around a bit with photoshop and made a few backgrounds.
I'll try to make some better ones later.
Enjoy

Wish I could use one of these with my Kenwood DNX7100. I've read the only way to install one is through a USB line, and that port is occupied by my iPod. Any suggestions anyone?

You can temporarily disconnect the iPod and load the wallpaper, then reconnect the iPod.

You can use any of these backgrounds with the DNX7100. Just unplug your iPod and then plug in an USB flash drive that has the pics saved on it. I would suggest loading up the flash drive with several pics and see how they look on the HU. B/c they will look different on the radio than they do on your computer. Go to the menu interface on the HU and you can store up to 3 backgrounds on the radio.

Once your down downloading the background to the HU, you can unplug the flash drive and then plug up the iPod again. The radio's memory will store the pic for you. It should only take a couple of minutes to do this.
