MyFord Touch Home Screen

[2011ExplorerXLT]

Does anyone have any cool pictures/ideas of your home screen? It is very customizable right? I just got my Explorer and I'm looking for ideas on what to do. It seems like a waste of space to have sync services and phone stuff taking up half of it since I do most of that stuff by voice command. I would like to have a few more radio presets with a mix of am/fm and and sirius but I haven't figured out how to do that with the standard quadrent set up.

And I definitely need a cool wallpaper idea.

I went for irony. I have a screen capture of a BSOD waiting for mine.

I threw these together, feel free to use them. They are the optimal size for the MFT screen resolution 800x378 per the manual. Throw them on a USB or SD card and you can upload them directly to your internal memory on MFT (it allows 32 photos according to the manual).

Here's a couple more, LOL!

I wish it had an option for a start-up jingle/sound-clip. If it did, I would use the same sound-clip I have for my PC, if you're familiar with the X-men movies: "Welcome Professor" ....... lol, and no I'm not a professor.

This picture is amazing. Makes Sterling Gray look top notch.

Seni - when will an answer be available as to how to make Album Art display correctly for MP3 on a USB or SD connection? Searched several forums and there is no response from Ford on any site that I've been able to find. It is a widespread issue.

A couple of ones I have made up for when my explorer arrives. If your looking to edit photos easily for this, try microsoft picture manager. If you have office, it will be in the office tools group next to word, powerpoint etc. Open the photo in there and then resize (tools resize) to 800 wide (let it auto select the height) and then crop down the height to 378 (tools crop)
