    The optimum size of the picture is 800 x 600 pixels.

Your profile is ready. All you need to do now is to assign it to your thin clients by dragging and dropping it or by adding it under Assigned objects.

You will be asked when the changes should take effect. Select Now to specify that your changes should be applied immediately.


After changing the image file or any setting of an existing custom bootsplash, the bootsplash code has to be rebuilt. You can trigger this from UMS via a scheduled Job with the command Update Desktop Customization.
