How to capture images online from web to wallpaper - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hey guys I'm new to the forums and a relatively happy owner of the sgs. Anyway is there a way to save images as wallpaper from the internet. What I mean is theres an image on google I want to use as my wallpaper. My previous phone was an iphone and there was an option of screen capture or saving the file.
Thanks in asvNce

Hold your finger on the image (long press) then save the image.now you can open the image inside the gallery and set as a wallpaper.
Hope this helps

What app is it that lets you use the whole image for wallpaper?

I know there is an app that lets you use the whole image as the wallpaper. Unlike the stock one that only lets you stretch the view field so far...
Wallpaper set and save

Screen Capture Galaxy s2

To capture what you are looking at on your phones screen, just press the home key and the power button at the same time and it will capture the screen image and save it in your pictures folder, or just click on your pictures icon to select and view.
Have a nice day...

Nice! I found a good one too:
When on any home screen, long press on an empty area and an options to add widgets becomes available.
In the list of widgets you will find one by the name of 'Google'.
Very handy.

How do I set full screen/scrollable wallpapers without cropping and using KIES???

OK, so I want to use pictures I've taken (or downloaded for that matter) to set as my homes screen wallpaper WITHOUT cropping the picture (or without significantly cropping it)?
Right now when I try and set a picture from my gallery using the TW gallery it forces me to crop it, AND it forces me to crop it in PORTRAIT mode only...when I scroll (using Nova launcher, scrollable wallpaper enabled) it scrolls and shows black bars. So I downloaded and installed the .apk for the stock gallery, which was slightly better as it allowed me to crop in landscape mode, giving me more of the picture.
But, get this...if I'm using KIES Air and looking at the pictures and choose one to set for the wallpaper it automatically adds it, no cropping, full screen...What gives?
tl;dr
I want to use pictures from my gallery for wallpaper, without cropping (full screen), without KIES Air, and to be scrollable.
Thanks dudes.

Gr. Thanks for the tip.
Really was hoping to not need to install another app...not that I don't have the room (ha!), but that's just annoying that I have to. I assume, since the 'issue' persists with the stock launcher that this is an ICS thing?
Have you tried 'scrolling wallpaper' app from market. Its basically a LWP that lets you set any picture you want as a scrollable wall paper. You don't have to crop anything.

[Q] Issue regarding wallpaper scaling. Help appriciated!

Hey XDA.
I've had an issue latlley regarding my Nexus 7, whenever I set a wallpaper, no matter if it's a living wallpaper or just and ordinary high-res image, the wallpaper gets scaled down extreamly and looks like crap. The issue started after I installed 'Gyrospace 3D' (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=opotech.starfieldLWPFree) and I have the same issue on my HTC Sensation, aswell after installing the same app, thats actually what made me relize the app came with the isuee. Heres what i tried to do to resolve it:
1. Uninstall the app
2. Change launcher
3. Wallpapyrus app, Wallpaper Setter app
4. Other Wallpaper apps
5. Restarting devices
How can I resolve this stupid issue? I issume theres some value the app changed wich makes all wallpapers be very very scaled down, and even if i choose as big as possible, it stays zoomed in when set.
Id love to if anyone can help me, a solution that aint factory reset obviously. Thanks in advance, and warnings for that stupid app.
I'll try a little bump and hope someone has an idea how to resolve this! Thanks
Use quickpic to set a wallpaper, available in the market. When it ask you which gallery to use to set the wallpaper, pick quickpic and it will use the full picture and not make you crop a section. Hope this helps.

Clear cache or reinstall the app and mess with the settings to see if it has an option to disable the cropping or whatever the hell it's doing?

Wow... Awesome solution. I've been really hating how gallery crops photo's to look like crap.
Quick pic loading app too. Will be replacing my gallery for sure!
Now.... Just wondering as I haven't been on the up and up on apps...
Since using original HTC incredible Google has had issues with high rez contact pics when callers call. Still have that issue... Is there app to fix that too?

I tried, theres simly no settings for this **** app..
Syncmypix works well for making higher res call pictures, but it is for Facebook pics. As long as most of your contacts are synced through Facebook then you won't have a problem.

If your just setting a static wallpaper, you have to open quickpic, select your pic then set as, then crop using quickpic. If you use the long press method from the home screen it will force you to crop the normal way.

I use the 3d pic live wallpaper app by the same developer as the gyro space LW and it works beautifully.

Picture Modification

Hi all need help deciding which way to go developing a picture based parts repair form. My first thought was to have the user take the picture then edit photo after its saved by adding a circle or arrow to the parts area in question. The second thought I had would be to use an overlay graphic (arrow or circle) while taking the picture and saved together. While the second option sounds easier its less user friendly I'm thinking. Are there any other options I'm missing? What are your thoughts.. Thanks :banghead:

I figured it out! The easiest way I found was from Aviary. A free/paid image editing SDK @ http://developers.aviary.com
Best feature I liked is you can allow / disallow users different editing tools for your needs.
