With the caveat that my Pocketbook 360 is pretty old now and things may have changed with later models like yours ...

With mine, it is very straightforward. All I have to do is place the screensaver(s) I want in the internal memory directory system/logo. The images must be in format greyscale BMP at 4 BPP (bits per pixel). They should also be the correct shape/size for the screen of your particular model (e.g. 600 x 800 pixels in my case).

To make my PB360 use a particular image I go into Settings - Appearance - BootLogo and/or PoweroffLogo and select the BMP image I want. If you have copied several BMPs to the logo directory there is also a selection random logo which randomly picks an image from the logo directory each time it's needed.

If this info is way out-of-date hopefully someone will be along soon to give you better instructions

Edit: In case it's helpful, attached is a sample of a BMP which works fine on my PB360

There's info on how to change the power off and boot up images here (page 75): http://download.pocketbook-int.com/6...23%28EN%29.pdf , but you're asking about the sleep image, right? (When the reader is paused, not turned off.)

I changed to Crystal theme (info in German here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=214445 , some related info here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=214763 ), and that changed the sleep image to a sleeping penguin, see the first thumbnail in the German thread. I've no idea how to change it to a custom image, but the second thread I linked to has some info on how to make your own themes.
