RaaA targets *generally* have better disk access than real targets,
loading a jpg from disk seems like a much nicer plan than compiling in
a bunch of bitmaps (it also allows the user to change the boot logo
which is something which has come up plenty of times in the last few
years)

I didnt spend much time here but credits should be doable, pictureflow
uses the LCD_HEEIGHT/WIDTH defines alot, i spent no time investigating
further. properties works fine.

yes this is doable, I dont tihnk we should do this though. it will add
a fair bit of bloat for 0 gain.
