[APP][In-Dev]Help us out with beautiful weather wallpapers! - Windows Phone 8 General

Hey all!
I'm developing a weather app for Windows Phone that, besides weather forecast, shows appropriate wallpapers for the city you are located it. However, it's not easy to collect quality pictures from so many cities. Moreover, I don't myself know where from my audience is . So here's something between a challenge and request: Can you write down your city and, if you have time, try find a picture for it (or take one yourself). It would be preferable, but not required, if you could get three. If you post a pic from another site, make sure it has the necessary rights and list the author. You'll get your credit in the app when it comes out of course
tl;dr: I need pics of your hometown for an app I'm making. Preferably three. If too lazy, just post your city's name and I'll find pics. Credit will be given for pics.
Thanks a lot!
P.S. A sneak peek of the app right now is attached to this post.

Want to pay developer to finish live wallpaper app for market(invested to much time)

I have started to create a live wallpaper app for the market but do not have the slightest on making it work. I have so far created very detailed images and need them to work like they do in live wallpaper creator in the market. I will release the files to xda if I could get some of my developers fee back with donations a lot of people like the static wallpapaer when I posted it the first time. I did not know what I was getting into for 25 dollars.
Please someone help me out.
Also if you are not allowed to offer payment to devolpers please let me know.

I need to hire a developer!

Howdy, the name's Mike. I've got an idea for a comics app that I think has legs. I want to release it for the Android Market, but I'm a graphic designer and I'm absolutely useless when it comes to code. The App Inventor isn't robust enough for my needs. So, I need to hire someone who can take my graphics, concepts and instructions and make it into a real app.
I'm planning this as a commercial application (~1.99/free with ads), so you will be paid well for your work. Preference will be given to developers who can code for multiple platforms (Android/iOS/WP7), have proven development and Android Market experience, enjoy internet comics, and who can meet in person in north Texas.
I've been lurking on XDA since I got my HTC Touch three years ago, and I can't think of anywhere else I'd like to start looking for talented developers. I supply the ideas, the capital and the interface. You supply the rest. Let's make an app. Email me at aggie20x at gmail dot com to get the ball rolling.
[Mods: If this post violates XDA rules, please take it down and email me to let me seek alternatives. I don't want to make any trouble.]
I was wondering a similar thing, but a search doesn't give much.
I didn't want to make a new post, I'm surprised there wasn't a long list of devs for hire already
Please post here if you might be available. I have a rather simple app request.

Let's hear it.
Basically I just want an app for my site (see sig below) which will give the posts in a list, have a tab for comments and a tab for videos (from our YouTube channel).
My idea was it would be a way for people to say thanks (I would charge 99p for it) and it would maybe help fund further progress of the site...

[Q] Need help testing

I created an app that uses the facebook api that allows you to see the location of friends that are sharing there location with you.
Location sharing is fully controllable, you get to set when you location is being shared and which friends can see it.
None of my facebook friends have android phones, lames I know, but I need someone to help me test. I put the app on the market but I am not getting any feedback there.
So, I am looking for a volunteer that wouldn't mind having me as a facebook friend and would mind me temporaily seeing there location. You would also be able to see mine.
The app is named Longitude, it's on the market if you would like to check it out before hand.
Thanks in advance.
whats the name of the app?

The name was in the OP, but it's called Longitude. Here is the market link

No offense and I think you wrote a great app ...but (here it comes LOL) looks like a "stalker" app to me.
I'm sure you mean no harm with your app, but my god, with the amount of information that is out there about any given person these days, do you need to know where I live? I think NOT!
Granted, I know my mom's name and can look it up online and even see a picture of the house I grew up in, but..where does it stop? Sorry to use this thread as a personal rant, but really, there is just too much info out there these days...maybe I'm getting old.
Again, I think your app is great from the screenshots I saw. I've yet to get into any mapping code myself. I just don't like the "Big Brother" aspect of it.

I took inspiration from Google Latitude, I liked Latitude but I use my email mostly for business and thought that an app like this would be more fitting with Facebook. There was no such app so I decided to make it.
I completely understand where you are coming from though, it is a somewhat scary app. When I first starting working on it I was just going to broadcast the location to all friends that used the app.
Then I thought about it and realized that I wouldn't want my location available to everyone all the time. So I made it so you can turn the service off.
Then I thought that I don't want everyone on my friends list being able to see where I am either so I made it so only selected friends can view your location. I also do not log any location information.
But, I think the benefits of such an app can outweigh the negatives, and if people are responsible about sharing their location then it shouldn't be able to be used as a stalker tool.

Small Photo App Idea (w/ a twist). Need help!

Hello. I have an idea for an app but unfortunately have no time/idea how to write code ect. Knowing that this is the only place to find good info on android development I went straight to this forum.
Basically I need help building an apk that will allow you to frame a picture from your camera with different templates(animals, celebs, ect.) as well as add different effects to it (stretch, skew ect.) I know that this sounds fairly common and there are several apps that do this already (placeface?), but my idea has a simple twist.
With all the news lately about people getting into trouble over lude cellphone pics(favre,(R)weiner,kanye to name a few), why not capitalize off of it? My idea is to take a simple photo app but gear it to the invetible "**** pic" capturer. Yes, a **** pic app! With this app you should be able to take a picture of your junk and frame it like an elephant, girraffe, or place your own member on someone elses frame. Am I the only one who thinks this would be hilarious??
Please respond with your thoughts or PM me with ideas. Thanks in advance!
*I dont know how much developers charge or if that is acceptable on this site, but I have a paypal account
Hahahaha. Wow... dress your member.
All i can say is that this would never fly on ios.
From something awesome

Dear developer, I've tried this app. Tough there's Ad banner under the screen, it's very useful. But some how it can't open my mp4 shoted by my phone showing "no subtitles". Pls fix. Besides it could be better if you could add some guiding UI or instruction pages at the beginning of the program, when this app is opened by user at the first time. 5 stars. Keep it up!
Would you like to have a try on Locker Master? If find it good pls rate it. It won't disappoint you.

Hello, your app is rated by Akane Qiku.
Super app! Simple, clean and useful. It could be better if more kinds of currencies are supported, and the guiding UI made into animation instead of manual taping pages. Keep it up!
