hi guys, when i goto crop my pics, they crop fine, but im left with a tiny picture..
how do i resize the pic to full screen...
this is one of the biggest problems about the x10,i have loads of pictures but most come out all small or fuzzy using the crop,why se didnt just allow full screen wallpaper is beyond me,however there are a few apps in the store that allows full screen wallpapers however must force close a lot and piece of advice dont use justpics it freezes the phone completely i learned it the hard way,if you find a better way to use full pics as wallpaper please let me know thanks
Bloody JOKING...
Yeah it seems there's some seriously dumbass software issues with the wallpaper option on the X10.
It seems there is no straight forward to way to simply select picture (either one you've take or one upload from cpu/bluetooth) and set the whole/full image as phone's background.
Cropping is forced and as far as i can tell MAX image is 2 THIRDS OF SCREEN!!
Hi

Try to use "Wallpaper set and save" from the market. Works fine for me.
hi buddy
thanks it works

I was wondering about an additional thing; would it be effective to add a completely black background with regards to saving battery life?
That depends on how long you are going to stare at your background.
But making everything black for a little bit of power is senseless. Using normal wallpapers and just using the phone in general will only consume 60% of the power of an LCD. Just dont use white walls and you are fine.
just wonder if there are any p'shop wizards around here that can make this image fit on the evo 7 screen home... id like the skydive completely in the center "home" screen...
i tried resizing to 1280x1024 it was close but the photo started to distort...
thanks for your help...

See if this works for you.
perfect bro... well the skydiver is alittle low on the screen imo but never the less it worked...
thanks...
I've changed it about ten times but to me it always seems blurry. The stock photos looks pretty awful as well. Is that the way it's suppose to look?
Varies
It depends. It seems to have more to do with the image size than anything. I have both a Mac and a Windows box, and when I was trying syncing mine with the Mac for a while I checked the option to resize photos for the phone and all my hub tiles were really bad after that, when I sync from Windows and Zune with (presumably) larger pictures, I get the problem significantly less, though still the occasional pic it doesn't seem to like.
I'm talking about the main pictures double tile that you pin to the start screen. Not sure if your referring to the same thing.The individual pictures looks brilliant.
The panorama background in the picture hub looks awful as well but i don't really care too much about that one. My main issue is the picture tile on the start screen.
will wp7 ever be able to take screen shot
Have you tried choosing your own picture for the background?
In Pictures, touch and hold the panorama title. A menu should pop up allowing you to choose a new picture or have it choose one for you.
The panorama takes an image of at least 1426x800. Those seem to be the dimensions suggested to developers.

If you don't like the double size Picture Tile, you can make a picture a favorite and then create a shortcut to it. This will be a single tile, and it takes you to the pictures menu where you can still scroll through all your pictures. That's how I have mine set up.
Thanks for the suggestions Tempest790. I tried the pin to start favorite option but its still blurry. Its nothing like the Zune tile which is crystal clear and very sharp. I'm beginning to think that's the way its suppose to look. I think my only hope now is to find another owner of a wp7 phone and ask to look at their pictures tile which in itself will be a monumental task considering I live in New York and all I ever see here are iPhones and androids.

So I'm having some issues setting a picture for my lockscreen. I have the picture on the phone, it is the right resolutiom and great quality, and it looks great when I view it on the phones gallery but when I set it on the lockscreen all the colors are screwed up, looks like the gradient gets all messed up and choppy.
Anyone having similar issues or know of a solution?
Much help would be appreciated, been struggling with it for a long time...
It's the super amoled screen. Soft gradients always looks weird.

huh...that sucks. Thanks for the heads up, I had heard something about that with the gradients getting all fractured. But it shows fine in the phones gallery but not on the lockscreen...i thought the picture was corrupt or something.
So much for super AMOLED
