Hi, The Android boot process (not counting bootloader) is in two parts. The first part `init` will display `initlogo.rle` if there is one. Once the boot process is further, the `bootanimation` will display the boot animation `bootanimation.zip` (possible in three locations) or if there is none, the built-in "ANDROID" animation. So if you want to display your boot screen instead of the "ANDROID" animation, you will have to create a `bootanimation.zip` and place it in `/system/media/` to replace the built-in animation. There is a nice tool for doing that under Windows <http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678540>
For your problem I assume you didn't used the correct resolution or orientation for the `initlogo.rle`.
