1st I am surprised by this. The splash screen is already enabled for crownbay
BSPs.
So you should be seeing the splash screen with the default crownbay BSPs.
And yes it is possible to customize the splash screen as per your needs.
Check the psplash recipe and it's sources for more details.

The psplash should give you what you want. So I think there is no need to find
a new
solution here.
Thanks,
