Some pictures are in spanish because of my PC, but you'll understand perfectly.
You'll need:
-Indexed Sprite
-Cyclone
-UnlzGBA
-2 Empty Offset
_Can use this: -6EF000 ; 7D0000
They use 6 numbers, for UnlzGBA add two zeros (0) in front.
-A graphic program, eg. Paint
-Ruby Rom
-And … PATIENCE ^^

1.-First we open the indexed sprite in Paint and change the attributes to 240 x 160 pixels. It looks like this:
240x160imagensprite.png


2.- Draw the title screen as you want it to be in the rom, use pictures from other places, I don't know, be creative ^^ It looks like this:
ComoSeVeEnElRom.png
Those waves I took them from Unlz.

3.-So now we have save as the picture, and then, we open it twice, in one we put in attributes, 128 x 128 and we make a puzzle with all the things the title screen will have.
When I put 128 x 128 it looks like this:
128128AlPrincipio.png

So now, we have to fix it, so that, all is in that picture of 128x128 pix.
OrdenamosLasPiezas.png

Now we have to erase the unnecessary things with the third square of the brush:
TercerCuadradoBrush.png

Like this:
BorrarInnecesarioRojo.png
To erase use the BLACK colour, RGB : 000
PD. The Red square MUST be BLACK coloured!!!! If not, the title screen will mess.

Now we save it as GIF and…To Cyclone!

4.- We open cyclone and load the 128 x 128 file.
First:
LoadTileSetCyclone.png

Second:
PonerEnTipoGIF.png


5.- After that the picture will appear at the left side of Cyclone , like this:
AlLadoIzquierdoImagen.png

Then we click in one square of the left side and put it in the right so we build our title screen:
EmpezarAOrdenar.png

Finally, we got this:
TerminandoEnCyclone.png


Now we save the Raw file doing this:

First, we put in File/Save TileMap:
SaveTileMap.png

Then we put in Raw Image Type and we save it:
PonerTipoRawImagen.png


Now to UnlzGBA!

6.- We open Unlz, load the rom, then we go to the title screen number that is 75-78 and we put this IMPORT, then All Files, we select the 128 x 128 file and then Write to Rom, and in Image Offset we put a clean offset.
6a.
Import.png
6b.
AllFiles.png

6c.Select the 128x128 Gif File. 6d.
WriteToRom.png

6e.
CambiarImageOffset.png


When you put "OK" a message appears, that means it's ok ^^

Now, go to the next number of the title screen, if the title screen was 75 go to 76, if it was 78 go to 79. It appears some lines like this:
RAWImage.png
<--RawFile

Now we load the file we made in Cyclone, we do this:
LoadRaw.png


Then we select the Raw File and we do the same as we did in the title screen, I mean, we put another clean offset in IMAGE OFFSET.

So now, we just try it in the rom, it will look bad, with other colours, well, just change palls and there you get your title screen ^^

It looks like this first:
PortadaSinPaletas.png

Then, with changed palls:
PortadaFinal.png
PD. Don't pay attention to the name ^^ u.u'

Hmm... I don't understand properly.

I know when you insert it and do it in Cyclone, I import all of the stuff and then the colours are all weird.

What is the Pallete Offset to change those Pallets?

B.T.W this is KakerZone X with a different name.

It might help if you actually GAVE US the palette offsets so we could, you know, actually have real title screens. D:
