Hey everyone! I just started using Linux a few days ago, and I'm having a bit of fun customizing things. I managed to put a funny meme as my GRUB wallpaper, but the resolution looks awful! I've heard that setting an incorrect resolution could break GRUB, and I'm curious if I can safely set it to 1902x1080? Also, I'm trying to change the text color because the background is white and now it's hard to read the text on GRUB. Any advice would be appreciated! Oh, and just to mention, I'm using GRUB for both Ubuntu and Windows.

I’d advise against changing the GRUB resolution if you're new to Linux. There are much easier ways to mess things up! If you want a fancier boot menu, consider using `rEFInd` instead. It’s better to have a handle on the Linux filesystem and how config files work before tweaking GRUB. I’ve seen a lot of users break their setups with tools like 'Grub Customizer', so tread carefully! And remember, always learn how to revert any changes you make in case something goes wrong.
Is it straightforward to change a bootloader? I know a bit, but the thought of messing with it without a recovery plan makes me nervous!
