Need background pics for nav unit

jdrhodes · 01-27-2009, 06:51 AM

Anyone have toyota themed pics to use as background for dvd/nav recievers. I need .jpeg in 800x480 res. Something like a black background with TRD logo and maybe front end of tacoma. How about it photoshop guys. Post your pics!

AD's TRD Logo - but ya gotta ask him first...

neontrail · 01-27-2009, 06:55 AM

something like this???

Dark Knight · 01-27-2009, 06:55 AM

that is a sweet logo but it would be really bright even with the dimmer at night because of all the white in the image.

Got it, thanks. But when I resize to 800x480 the picture is blurry. Why is this? Will it be sharper on my nav? Also I have to upload to my nav via an sd card. How do I create a pictures folder on the sd card?

I am no graphic expert but if you are miking it bigger it will get blurry unless it is a vector image. Best bet is to find a big image and shrink it down or expand the "canvas" size and not the actual image.

Also remember that the screen on your GPS isn't as crisp as your monitor, so lower quality pics probably aren't as bad as you think. Experiment!

Here's a couple that I threw together. I've been thinking about doing this on my 8120 as well, just hadn't gotten to it yet...
