It looks like these need to be bmp files in a specific format and to be in /var/lib/uboot as either splash.bmp or lowbattery.bmp.

From https://web.archive.org/web/20230608211545/https://remarkablewiki.com/tips/splashscreens:

... it is worth noting that a second copy of splash.bmp is stored in /var/lib/uboot/ (where a FAT partition for booting is mounted): you have to copy it over there if you want it to be shown when you power up the reMarkable. It also expects a specific version of bitmap format, specifically version 4, so you need the file utility to yield PC bitmap, Windows 95/NT4 and newer format on whatever you replace it with. One way to achieve this is to edit your image using GIMP and enable greyscale mode before exporting to .bmp, which will then set it to version 4 automatically, instead of version 5 if you had maintained colour, which cannot be displayed by the bootloader. This image should also be rotated 90 degrees clockwise.

Using imagemagick to convert the png might be the easiest solution here.

Upon further investigation, it appears that the rM1 and rM2 do different things for these images. Both use uboot to display the image, but one uses bmp files, and the other a different format.
