Willing to make wallpapers

Not open for further replies.
From what I can tell after looking around some, that shot is from a Nexus live wallpaper, and there is no stock static version, right? If so, I'll have to take a try at recreating it. I need to know whether the Sensation takes a 1080x960 (this is what I think it should be...), or 540x960 wallpaper.

Get back to me, and I'll try to get to it tomorrow.


Yes sir, it's just a shot of the live wallpaper. There is no static version :(
And yes, I believe it is 1080x960

OK Ngo, here is my try at this one. Not quite sure how I did because I've never seen the live wallpaper. Also, being partially color blind, not sure how closely I matched the colors. If changes are needed, let me know.

To save at full 1080x960 resolution - Follow the link bellow and long press the image on your phone until the save option pops up, Then find it in your photo gallery and set as wallpaper. If it looks fuzzy, you may be better off viewing it from a computer, right click and "save as", and finally transferring to you phone via USB or email.

That's great to hear - especially this time of year! Thank you!


And also thanks for posting to let me know you like it. :)
 
@ Toasty -

Funny I just got that request right after yours - I had something very similar in mind when I was planning out yours...

Anyway, see if this is in the right vein at least. Not sure it's done yet, but I don't know what else it might need either, and I do kinda like the minimal look. Any ideas?

I made this one larger than necessary (1066x800), but still in the proper aspect ratio, so that it can be used on higher resolution phones as well as yours.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to post something earlier, I got in a bit of a hurry and only had time to hit the thanks button. :p
Irony is a strange thing isn't it? :p
That looks perfect, I can't think of much else it really needs. Simple yet striking is always best in my opinion.

OK cool. Glad to hear you like the look. Thanks for the follow-up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for how I did this... I started out by opening this handy-dandy 480x800_wallpaper_template.png, the same resolution of your phone's screen. Next, I opened the pic you posted and re-sized it (maintaining the aspect ratio to avoid unwanted stretching in one direction or the other) until the sofa would fit entirely on the template, then pasted that as a new layer over the template. Now this left the image too short to fill the whole 800 pix height, so I lowered the new pasted layer to the bottom, leaving all the space to be filled at the top. To do that, I just copied part of the wallpaper background, pasted as a new layer and moved it up to fill the empty space making sure to carefully match the patten. This last step I repeated until the top space was filled. Then just save as a .png or .jpg and you're done! Good luck!

If I was unclear (highly likely! :o), or you have any other questions ask away, and I'll do my best to answer.

You are an absolute star! I will try it out right now.. So just out of curisity what program did you use?

I have a program called Gimp (ive never used it) or paint.net which Im only a little familiar with! :-)

Good deal! Thanks for letting me know.

I do sometimes use Gimp, but what I mainly use is Sumo Paint - Sumo Paint | Online Image Editor - It's not as powerful as Gimp, but it's got plenty of features, and for me, it's very easy to use. Plus, it's free (online version) to boot!

I can vouch for that, I used SumoPaint for a few assignments where we had to make flowcharts in my programming class, and it saved me a considerable amount of time. I probably should thank you for that, I wouldn't have known about SumoPaint if it wasn't for you. :p

Here's those screenshots I mentioned earlier, its quite nice not having to do any work for school. I think it turned out nice, the clock is transparent enough where it doesn't really get in the way of whats outside the window, and the icons are all cozy on the couch. :p

I've mentioned how much I like Sumo here a ton of times. It's nice to know at least a few of you have found it as useful as I have. (Also, the more people that use it means less work for me to do, right? :D:p;))

Nice job finishing off the look. Those icons fit the vibe just as I hoped they would.
 
could i have a Washington Capitals wallpaper? i don't care as to how it is designed. I'm using a galaxy nexus. thanks in advance!

Hey Kyle - Sure, I'll see if I can come up with something for you. I'll try to get to it tomorrow, or maybe Friday - I'm a little busy with Xmas stuff these days.
 
Eyebeam, could you resize the following pics to fit my HTC Incredible. Please and thanks!

I'll see what I can do, but those are pretty small to work with... I may have to leave them aprox the same size and add some kind of background around the edges. Cool?
 
Hey eyebeam, I was wondering if you could make me a grey version of this?


If its just a color change I can take a stab at it. I know Eyebeam said he was busy and I'm not motivated for working.

Click here to download. I left it at the 960 x 800 size. Let me know if you want the color different or a different size. (Eyebeam is the master at this, I'm simply trying to help)

Looks like BB has got you covered.

Thanks BB! Looks good to me. I appreciate the help. :)

(Oh -and I win! :D:p;))

I'm having a go at this now. Please stay tuned. :)
Edit: alrighty, I made you something. It is a single pane, hope that's ok. Now for the way to get it to you....

Thanks, that looks perfect! Can you also make one in white for me?
