Does anyone have this tool for Downlod?
EXTRA BG MAKER
Allows you to change the bacground image of the DC boot menu from a PVR texture or a PNG/GIF/JPEG image as you like. Note that for a PNG/GIF/JPEG image its size must be one of these:
- 16x16
- 32x32
- 64x64
- 128x128
The best quality/size rate is obtained with a 64x64 image.
How to convert the photos to VMU for use in the secret menu screen?

I used to like having these added to my system from the ones preloaded on Blue Swirl's VMU Tool. Did you check on that website yet?
Here is a wayback machine archive of the page, maybe the HTML code could be reused by somebody wanting to host a live copy of the page?

Edit: Oh shit Ian and I posted at them same time, but my page seems a bit different to his... Different capture date I guess.

Im sorry thast all i have

the other is just the freeware version. one i posted was used in the dev kit by sega. you need an old adobe as well..
you could run a VM and have windowsxp and old adobe in it cant crash your pc. just use virtual box or others. this is not something that can be done easy.
