Thanks. I'll take a look. Is something like that in the plans at all, feature-wise, down the road for PRS+?

I have this in mind, when inspecting decompiled code, but it's not part of the roadmap since there are neither even rough estimations of how long that would take nor any sort of guarantee of success.

Sorry... are you saying I can just copy over the kBookAssets.png file into the proper place for it to get copied over by the PRS+ installation script?

In short:
no, it won't work with PRS+ installer, only with PRSCustomizer or directly via igorsk's flasher.
In details:
There are 2 ways to change firmware:
a) using Fsk cramfs image files
b) by reconstructing Fsk partition on the fly (extract to tmp, copy new files over, create cramfs image), combining them with several custom files.
Igorsk's flasher can do both.
PRSCustomizer basically prepares igorsk's flasher for you. The flasher is quite easy to use. I don't recall exact menu names, but you basically "create image" and then "flash" it with other menu option. When "creating" image, files from the folder corresponding to your reader's model/firmware version are used. This works perfectly with files that do not need x flag (if you replace tinyhttp.sh file with the flasher, it will brick your ebook since x flag will be lost)
PRS+ Installer only does a) in a bit user frendlier way, it can also flash Rootfs partition, effectively "downgrading" the reader to US 1.1.00.18040.
PS
Oh, just forgot, you can, of course, replace files in Fsk.img using cramfs utilities and then use PRS+ Installer (or igorsk's flasher

) to flash it.
