Its a bitmap named "Starting Screen", extract it, modify it, then reinject it.

Dothalo, ADI, Ch2r, Entity, It really doesn't matter.

Dothalo is a easy to use program
ADI, Same as dothalo
Entity doesn't have a inject option so I wouldn't depend on that.

But it extracts as BMP or JPEG, which is useful.

everything you are talking about is "skinning" do exactly what you did to find the halo 2 title. just look for the bitmaps then edit them.
