Thanks for not being an ass about it! I don't know if my OP was confusing or what, I was looking for something locally on this board.
Again, thanks for the quick speedy response!
regards
:good:

Ironic how the "smartass" comments are always written by idiots like you.
That resolution would not give you a properly fitting wall paper (aside from the fact that you wrote 1280*768 instead of 768*1280), because the phone has to upscale it to fit the moving home screens.
The original wallpapers that Google has included are 1436*1196, so anything 1500(width)*1200(height) will do.
Obviously, the width (1436) is a lot bigger than 768 to allow for the homescreen movement without having to upscale the picture, and the height (1196) is smaller than 1280, since the homescreen buttons and menu bar take up some space.

Thank you for an actual response. Is there a section anywhere on XDA with wallpapers that you know of?
2048x2048 'retina' ipad wallpapers work fantastically on the Nexus. The ones that I cycle between on my device can be found here - http://t.co/MCef15DL
Meh, I only use one home screen and didn't stop to think about users with multiple home screens. Regardless, the gist of my reply was valid - search! It's all there.

Hey guys was looking around because I know we all have had problems with wallpaper sizes........I think I found the solution ( not sure if it has been mentioned ....just thought I might help) just try using a programme called multipicture live wallpaper that can be downloaded free from the market........ it automatically resizes any pic to fit and also has options to change wallpapers by double tapping and also have different pics on different screens.......hope I would have helped someone out there........enjoy

No not really, i've posted on here about 10 times that 1610x1280 fits perfectly, people disagree and quote blah, then 2 days later they're back here again winging that their wallpaper doesn't fit.
hahahhaha oops, sorry man , obviously i havent seen it before, didnt mean to steal ur thunder ;P just trying to help
quick question, did you try the program? its pretty cool though
It seems to use Live Wallpaper. Can you make it work with just regular wallpaper?
I created a thread about this over at tabletroms and I also created a png grid overlay that allows you to center images on the screen. Also I have filmed video tutorials over there on how to use these files to create nd center your own wallpapers on honeycomb. enjoy
well becaus i am not a frequent poster, i cant post the link. can be found at tablet roms dot com and do search for wallpaper, thread is titled that. may also healp to search for albertwertz
I've tried this app...it works pretty good but as the other poster said....as long as the resolution is correct...then it's just nice to have and not a necessity.
Yeah ofcourse resolution would count......but yeah its not too bad

any 1600x1200 wallpaper or higher will work just fine.
the actual size is 1980x1408
Personally I have no issue with the image scrolling left & right. It does annoy me though that honeycomb zooms the image and moves it up and down when you go into the apps menu or widget menu...
I posted this solution in the original themes and apps thread; it actually looks MUCH better from a clarity standpoint than cropped oversized wallpapers. Of course, if you're centering and resizing you will have identical quality BUT you will not have a giant black bar across the bottom of your screen when you switch to portrait. If you love switching wallpapers and you use high quality SLRs and such this is the only way to go.

I bought the full version to try it out. So far so good. Runs pretty smoothly on the Iconia. Thanks for the heads up.

I tried it, but I dont like it. The one long continuous home screen is cool, but I dont like the dullness that is the app drawer. All I want is the stock launcher with the ability to go to 1 home screen and change the grid size. Anyone know of such a thing for honeycomb?
i do not get the need to change to launcher ui.when I have my tablet in my hand im looking at a app I use. Don't care much for all the not needed flash .keep it simple save the CPU cycles and memory for the apps and browser.
With that said the pics look nice. Just dont see tthe point
Good responses I didn't like it cuz I have SPB shell and this launcher still needs alot of work to it in my eyes. That being said FOR THOSE THAT WANT CHANGE and don't wanna spend 15 on a 3D launcher this might be of interest which is why I decided to post

Who needs an App Drawer when you can have these Folder Cubes.
This video is after an hour or so of goofing with it.
No way was this a quick process. But it was easy to do.
Yes I did move every app from my App Drawer to the Folder
Cube on the desktop.
And no. You haven't lost or began to need reading glasses.
Just try imagine that I took the time to clear up the video a little bit.
There's not a lot that I can do to lessen the pointlessness. So. Much like the video. I didn't
even try to correct that one. Sorry E.R.
Not too bland eh?
It is easy to see that the larger icons take a few seconds to load. I will send a link to this video to the dev and see if there is a way to put large, and even customized icons (for the ones that it doesn't find.) into the cache somewhere. Maybe it will be an easy fix. Other than that I have to say that it is pretty nice on the Iconia. I don't regret buying it one bit. Now to find the Nook Color...

Look for a app called Folder Organizer.. I have it and set it up once it allows you create groups with menus on your home screen .. not exactly what your looking for but you might like it.. also DENSITY CHANGER APP.. im not sure the exact name .. changes the screen density . This changes the icon size not sure if it will allow you to drop more on there or not..

Sorry for getting off topic good luck

No problem. This app works just as well on the Nook Color as it does on the Acer. (?!?Maybe even better?!?) Thanks again for sharing the find. I'll use this for a solid couple of days and report back on the stability. As well as any news. So far so good though.
Might seem like a stupid question but I've never owned an Android and I got a Nexus 4 on the way
I've seen people making complicated wallpapers in the shape of the + sign to accommodate for scrolling or something like that, but I really have no idea if that even applies to the Nexus 4.
All of that out of the way, what would be the ideal dimensions to make a Nexus 4 Wallpaper at?
1536x1280

or if using lightroom or photoshop to edit images use 1.2 to 1.0 ratio for cropping, has worked everytime

Depends on the launcher you use. With the stock launcher, the wallpaper size is 1436x1196. With Nova, the size is 1536x1280. I don't know about the other launchers.

what if the wallpaper scrolling is off, is it 1280×768 ?
Thank in advance

Pretty much since that's the resolution of the screen if you're using the Google launcher. It's largely depended on the launcher you are using.

We already have that, with a different appearance, but multitasking manager is present since android 4.0...
Unuseful idea in my opinion

Android already have this. Only difference is layout. This video = horizontal, ours = vertical.
Might be possible to theme it, which would be cool. I'd like to be able to customize that screen.

i know android have this but this one looks way better and more effective.
u can actually see a great preview of the app that's running and better use for the screen size.
think about it, u could add an option for a round display like turning a wheel of apps.

Even so, this is almost identical to Sense 4 on the HTC One.
I found this site when I was going through the "Post your Nexus 5 home screens". This one has very good collection of wallpapers. I loved it. Thought of sharing the same.

I still love Wallbase.
But yes! I'm loving the quality of the ones I've seen so far even if it was just a few seconds that I viewed.

The interface for wallbase drove me insane, very old looking. Also there were too many girl background wallpapers and not enough quality wallpapers that didn't have women in a sexually suggestive manner
Thanks for the link OP (I'm out of thanks for today!) :good:
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Interfacelift...

Simply find an image you like and then select any resolution you want.
Wallbase for me. :victory:
This one is great too.
free-stock-illustration.com
The largest collection of free stock photos with HD quality.
There are a lot of GIF images too.
I use it all the time. Really good one.:fingers-crossed:
