I could find the shutdownanimation.zip file with the image inside but I haven't been able to replace it.
Thanks for pointing this set of instructions out.

0) prepare your new image:
name = Open_screen_1.png
size = 758x1024
resolution = 72
1) copy shutdownanimation.zip to sdcard (using file explorer with root)
2) move this file from sdcard to PC
3) open file with winrar and in folder part0 delete file Open_screen_1.png
4) in winrar move your new image to the folder part0
5) in winrar save the archive with compression method store
6) move the archive with new image from PC to sdcard
7) move shutdownanimation.zip from sdcard to /system/media/ (using file explorer with root - overwrite or rename old archive)
I found the shutdownanimation.zip file mentioned in /system/media/ I copied the file to the SD Card, then copied the file to my PC. I extracted the Open_screen_1.png image and added the following to the existing image:

This ereader belongs to John Smith
If found please call John @

I then replaced the image in the zip file. It was critical that the image in the zip file is simply stored in the file and not compressed. I could not find a way to simply replace the file without compression using Windows or 7 zip so I grabbed a trial version of Winrar from this page. Then I replaced the Open_screen_1.png image with my modified image. When adding this new image I made sure to change Compression Method from Normal to Store, see attached. Using Store does not alter the file at all, it simply places the file in the zip.

I then copied the file to the SD Card. Before copying the file to /system/media/ directory I went to the directory and renamed the existing shutdownanimation.zip file to shutdownanimation.zip.bak. Now I copied the new shutdownanimation.zip file to the original /system/media/ directory.

Next time I shut the ereader down, my new image displayed as I had hoped.
