I use the latest version of Grub Customizer (3.0.2) and Ubuntu 12.04. On "appearance settings" I changed the background image and the font, but once I reboot the system they don't appear on grub, there's always the default ubuntu background image and the font seems a bit changed but not very well... Why? I tried to resize and crop the image as described here: Why can't I see the image changed with GRUB Customizer? but it doesn't work in any case.
On /etc/default/grub:

# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

Thank you very much in advance.

I resolved converting the image from jpeg to png ;)

I had this issue, and found some advice to use a lower resolution image. that worked right away. My screen resolution when booted is 1920 x 1080, but that size would leave the default purple backround up and no image. Using the Grub Customizer GUI (always) I loaded much lower resolution and it loaded! My 1920 x 1080 is one of the HD sizes, so I looked up the next lowest HD size (1280 x 720) and the GRUB image this size loaded, almost full screen, and all is good. I'm using a HP Pavilion 22xi IPS monitor, and an Asus AMD Motherboard M4A785-M, not sure what exactly the video card is, low powered DVI-D something or other... I guess the boot resolution is lower than the full 1920 x 1080 after booted?
