Note: Don't let the fact that you're opening up a command prompt or editing .xml files scare you. It's quite simple! In fact, if you follow what I do step-by-step: this will work for AOKP Build 5 without any changes.
Other ROMs will have different layouts. But they will always (that I've seen) be localized in four to six files that reference to a "keyguard."
The edits should be fairly obvious. Look at where the brackets start and end: along with what they're calling.
I encourage you all to post your .zips here since I'm no longer doing this.
Please rename them so users can easily find one for their build and device.
Example (doesn't change text color):

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Hi guys, just created my first bootscreen. It's a walking Android, ripped from the GIF by Cramit:
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2489/4219688545_13cb6f0e0f_o.gif
(the one above is Cramit's original one)
I cropped it to 320x480 and removed the frames where the robot is "generating" (translucid). All you have now is the fully-formed (opaque) android walking, in the correct screen size. Here it is:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The flashable file is attached to the post.
Most of you should know how to flash a bootscreen, but, for the newbies, the instructions:
1 - Download the file to a folder of your choice
2 - Launch adb from the command line
3 - Type: adb push FOLDER-WHERE-YOU-DOWNLOADED/bootanimation.zip /data/local
You can also try putting it in your SD Card and moving it to /data/local via Root Explorer, but I can't guarantee it'll work.
I am also thinking about releasing a version merged with one of these Google boot screens:
or
So let me know if there's any interest in such versions.
Regards!

You mean just the Google bootscreen or the Android animation fading to the Google name? If you want only the Google logo with the loading circle, here it is. Tested and working on my 32A. Instructions for installation are the same as the OP's ones.
Thanks mate!!!
Firstly,
Thanks to original21 for posting eng.stk & blackhand1001's DarkerMod Universal Theme. And thanks to original21 for his work to help make it even better.
Credit me only the app/contacts background examples.
All the real work is theirs and all other credit is eng.stk, blackhand1001 & original21's, not mine.
Here is original21's thread - please go thank him if you appreciate this thread. Thank me too but thank him first
Also check to see if your ROM is good for this. Some have reported issues on some.

I like to direct people to the original work so please go there for full instructions on flashing the zips in custom recovery
[no need to wipe & I am not responsible for any damage you do in the process of flashing or as a result of the DIY]
DIY
Here's what I did. [I'll do a better diy if requested]
Super easy..
1. Open zip archive in 7zip
2. Navigate to framework nodpi folder and replace background picture with one of your choices [720x1280 but it'll stretch in landscape]
3. Navagte to system app Contacts nodpi folder and replace background. Same deal as 2.
I'm on apophis9283's AOKP 4.2.2 and have only tested on this. Universal Black Backgrounds v8.4 has not interfered with any other zips/mods or setting changes on my phone, with or without my bg's.
You can find his rock solid build here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2106640
Here's my examples and the zips/wallpapers are below.
I call them examples because ultimately I hope you will do your own and share them with me.
I find this to be a simple way to personalize and get eng.stk & blackhand1001's amazing black menus and the additions made by original21.

-- Thanks to all who tested and halp'd one another on my Google Plus page --
I'll be makin' moar on my Gplus (in my sig) and probably put them in Xda > Android > General or Theme
#Warning: You shouldn't need warnings by now - but I'm not liable if someone actually finds a way to screw up their device with a bootAnimation
:victory:
Yup,can confirm black screen.
You should learn how to resize pictures with out completely screwing up the aspect ratio on them. Every one of those images is horizontally deformed.
"I'm sure I'll edit and such" reads OP
It's my fun work in progress. If you don't like it, don't use it. (Continues to update OP)

Just trying to help you make it look better

It's kew. Honestly, I shared that I was making one on plus, and after 100+ pluses and a ton of comments, I wanted to produce a working version for everyone and "perfect" in time.
[EDIT] Perfect now...
Nice concept

I own a verizon galaxy note 3, so i posted in that specific device thread but thought i'd post here too for anyone who uses this thread also. original post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/themes-apps/bootanimation-despicable-t2816056
ok guys, i wanna thank you for your bootanimations, especially the Marvels Avengers Sequence, and the most recently uploaded Marvel-DC=Clash from this thread by KachowPow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2611238 ( INSTALLATION is the same process as the linked thread so if you are not sure how to put these on your phone, follow the above link for instructions)
after following the tutorials to try and make my own bootanimations, and much trial and error i finally got some to work if anyone is willing to test them out. Both with the Despicable Me theme, so i included the PowerOn.ogg file which is just a short instrumental clip of the theme song for the first movie. its in both the zip files IF you chose to use it, but its not necessary. So without further ado, i present to you my first 2 bootanimations ever.
(These previews are compressed and the actual bootanimation should look better)
First, i found these images minion superhero images from here: http://introspect37.tumblr.com/ (search "minion"). I did not create them, i just cleaned them up and made them all uniform in size for our purposes here. this is where i started, they were all still images so not much "animation" here but i still like it. i wish the background colors were all the same, but again, i was not the original creator of these artworks.

Second, i found this just browsing google images, it comes up on despicableme.com. now the original was in landscape and i had to add space to the top of it to make it the correct dimensions for our phone without chopping any of the animation away.

Thanks for downloading
I was looking at the "post your screen setup" thread and saw that no one had used any apps like screener or perfect screenshot or a psd to show off their setup. Since our phone is a very sexy phone it deserves to have something to show it off so I went ahead and made us one! It's my first go at making these psd, insert screenshot here setups so it's not perfect but it works just fine. Unlike most psd's you will find I have kept all layers unlocked and fully editable so you can do whatever you want with it. Feel free to use this for your rom or theme op's or whatever you want. I really don't care if you mention me in your op's but it's always nice to get a shout out! Just don't claim that you made it or distribute it on a third party site for profit! That's just shady. So I guess that's about all I have to say!
You'll need to 7zip extract it because uncompressed it's around 160 mb!
