i havn't been on the website in a long time and really love all the option you guys put up here. i will be receivin my tp2 come monday and really interested in using the HDWall, but has anyone created a software were it allows you to use a video or .gif file? i have tons of pics to choose from 1 for portriat and 1 for landscape but what about video? granted these phones prob are not made to handle constant video or i could be wrong, but a program that lets you compress a video or use a .gif and if possible run of a memory card would be a plus to minimize the use of the rom. am i making any sence, i think it would be cool. how long should it run, how big a file size it can be, i wish i was a programmer/dev. anyone can tell how i go about that, can it be self taught or a course is required.
it could be video clips, cartoons or a slide show of pictures
the new dusk sense rom/theme i believe has an animated wallpaper feature, its not really developed alot though, but this would answer your question....

With S2U2 now supporting .gif formats, how can i resize them without distorting the image? I have a few wallpapers I want to try myself, but I cant figure out what program to use. Can anyone help me?
hhhmmm do you mean on pc or pda?
irfanview is a good program to do it on pc
but you can never do it without it becomming blocky
all resizing do is to multiply the sizes of the pixels
no software can add new infomation to an image
those tv shows where they can keep zooming
and it audo makes the picture unblocky is just tv
I use GIMP 'Scaling' feature to scale a picture to 240 x 320, after I crop out the portion I want.
GIMP allow you to save multiple layers of pictures as gif format and even determine the speed of animation.
So....would GIMP enable you to take a 240x320 and crop it to a 240x240 like cropping a photo in other imaging software?
Yes it sure does.
GIMP may seem a bit 'daunting' for non-graphic designing tool user like me at first glance. but once you play with it for a while, it's not that difficult.
I'll give it a shot...thanks for the quick response!
is there a way to resize these in a batch rather than one by one using gimp? I just spent 30 mins trying to resize one gif and it still wouldnt even let me save it. Can someone give me some quck instructions on resizing using this program por favor?
How many layer are there in your gif file? I think the length of time taken is due to your unfamiliarity with GIMP. Otherwise, it should be pretty fast. Not sure whether there are other software out there which allows an even faster and easier way of doing this.
By the way, a question for the guru. I notice the picture quality dropped a bit after I saved them into gif. Any tips to get around such a drop?
i believe one gif had about 141 layers, is there a LIMIT to how many layers S2U2 .96 will support?
I was thinking of an idea for a program the other day at work. Me and another guy were really bored so we started to make flip book animations. Then I thought it would be cool if there was some program were I could take pictures of each frame then use the program to animate it. Is there any such program out there?
imageready in adobe cs2 does exactly that. it's used to make gif files
I did do a search in here for this but the only thing closest I could to find was AC's S2U with gif wallpaper.. This is something on the home screen wallpaper which was created by Skrew called "VWallpaper" see this linkhttp://i.danstaface.net/site/ and view video http://i.danstaface.net/site/node/24/
, This application is on the Iphone.. Would this be able to be made..? It would nice to be open onto home screen while you get a view of a video clip of example, a movie clip, cherished memory, imagination is broad onto what can be added as a vwallpaper. I'm not a Iphone fan but some apps created or recreated have been truly a work of art. So question remains is this possible.. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

i'm finishing up a program that will automatically split an image into the chunks necessary for Manilla 3d for blackstone.
If there is enough interest i'll make it public
err... need to move this to the applications forum. posted under general. oops.
Brilliant idea. Release it!
Sounds great! I would definitely use it!
You got my vote man! This would be cool.
thumb up on that
u have my vote as well...read through how to make wallpaper look good.....but to be completely honest it's a mission....for maniacs....so ur tool would bring that ability to have nice background to everyone
keep up ur work
Will this program make backgrounds at hi quality??? ---> something like here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=500178
Anyways I vote for it!!!
Great work! I too am curious if the image is high quality as discussed in the post above me. I believe the member Chainfire was working on a gui to do the same thing and resulting in High quality backgrounds. Also, after using your program, is there a line in portrait where the two portrait images meet or does it align perfect?
this will make the portrait and landscape PNG chunks at high quality so that you can load any image into it. This program will take care of the resizing/scaling/tiling. You'll still have to use something like CFC GUI (just copy the 4 png files and follow the steps in that thread) if someone can provide me with the compression algorithm used by manilla i can implement it to cut that step out so that you can go straight to the manilla folder

Is there any registry tweak that will allow you to zoom in closer with the album viewer software. It works great for the files I view but I need to be able to zoom in much more than it allows
Thanks
Mike
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can zoom in as far as the resolution of each image allows. I have some pretty high-res photo's (taken on a digital SLR) and I can zoom in on them until I start to see pixels. If you have low-res pics, you'll start seeing pixels much sooner.
Zooming in any further would be useless since it can't add any detail, you'll just see pixels the size of Lego blocks.
Edit: I realize you may want to examine an image pixel-per-pixel for some reason. In that case, sorry, I can't help.
Thanks for your response, If I could zoom in that close it would be great. I have some hi resolution files anywhere from 6-10 MB which open fine but I can only zoom in about 3 levels. If I could go to the level you describe, it would more than meet my needs.
Hm... Maybe there is a limit after all. I must admit I haven't tried any files in the 10mb region.
I've taken a quick look in the registry but I haven't come across anything that looks like it might solve this. Sorry.
I looked in the registry too but couldn't find any reference to HTCalbum at all. Guess I'll just have to start trying all the demos of the photo apps again...
There's a bunch of stuff under 'HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCAlbum'. Maybe you can find something I overlooked there.
Thanks, don't know why Resco didn't find that ref, I thought it scanned all directories. I couldn't find anything there either. I did change a dword from 2 to 3 in wheelzoomin frames but that didn't do anything obvious so I changed it back. Wonder if HTC support might be able to help, I've read that they're quick to respond to customer software issues but since this is more of a preference issue vs buggy software they may not offer up much.
Yeah, today I copied a 78 mega pixel image (actually a map) to my Leo and to my surprise, I can't zoom more than a certain amount in HTC Album. Anyone know a fix for this?
use resco photo manager, that one allows you to zoom in much more than the htc album. The newest version also supports multi-touch!
thanx! Tried resco; I'm flattered how they implemented multi touch this soon! only a month and a half after Leo's release.
It's really nice and fast (even faster refresh time than htc album) but I wish u could disable multi touch rotation. It's constantly confusing pinch with rotation.
