Ok, you posted this in my making wallpapers thread, but I'll answer you here as you're more likely to see it. On your phone, open that post with the whole image - http://androidforums.com/android-themes/92348-also-willing-make-wallpapers-16.html#post1599850
Now, long press on the picture and a box should open up with an option to save the picture. Do so. Now that it's saved on your phone, go to your picture gallery or albums or whatever it's called on your phone, find the picture, select it, and hit Menu on your phone. This should give you the option to "Set as" wallpaper. Got it? Let me know if this isn't clear. Good luck!
 
Alternatively, you can download the picture to your PC, connect your phone to pc via usb, turn on usb storage on your phone, then copy the file from your pc to any folder on you sdcard.
 
Or if you have a PhotoBucket account, upload the image to PhotoBucket, and use the PhotoBucket app to download it to your phone. This is what I do when I am too lazy to go upstairs and get my USB cord

Or if your computer has Bluetooth, there is a Bluetooth file transfer app.

There's a photobucket app? I must look into this.

OR... :p If you use Picasa (I do) download Docs Pics Docs Pics v1.3.9 Application for Android | Tools and that will sync pics and a lot more to your phone as well.
 
You can also email the pic to yourself from your pc. Then open the email and attached picture on your phone and save it that way. I've done it that way before....
 
i use google chrome to phone. when i see an image on my lap top i send the link to that image via chrome to phone and save it to my image gallery.
 
or you can do it though bluetooth. just turn it on your phone and make sure you have a bluetooth ready pc
 
Or... :) You could take the SD Card out of your phone (turn off phone first!), plug it into a card reader on your computer, transfer them to the card and then replace the card in the phone. Anything else we haven't covered?
 
hahahah thank you everyone! Most helpful forum ever. This is off topic but does anyone know if theres a way to get a little green android robot in the notification bar without like ATK? I like the robot but i heard ATK slows down phone? Thanks
 
wait wait, you could also open the picture on your computer, take the phone and take a picture of the picture and then open it up on the phone and save as wall paper.

There, I think we covered them all.
