heyy ya'll
i thought it would be cool is someone could develope a metal gear solid dialer look-a-like.. something like this:

off course the text could be replaced with buttons.. it would be that you would see your picture on the right an the picture of the person that is call you on the left..
that would be so freshh
anybody else feeling this? and any developer willing to pick it up?
yeah that would be nice indeed
Would definitly be awesome
I have an idea for a user experience on Android 2.1 platforms and possibly from 1.6 but I need a coder, I would provide artwork and direction. The coder would get the larger cut of the sales. I want this thing to hit the market asap so PPPPPLEASE someone get in touch with me.
Someone who knows some things about live wallpapers would be a bonus.
"user experience" is a little vague. Can you elaborate a little bit more?
Do you mean like an alternate UI? a la sense or blur?
Not a complete home replacement more of ambient information. Picture slidescreen pro but without the complete takeover and much less info being packed on page, cleaner and lighter. A live wallpaper is just a thought but I desperately need to talk to a dev about this purely because I believe I have a marketable idea and would ideally love to roll out at least an iteration of it to the market before the Droid gets 2.1 (1.1 million users in US).
oh an it is not just a live wallpaper that animates the change of weather.
Have objects in the wallpaper change perspective as you scroll your screens left or right. Like in this vid for example.
See how all the hills in the back scroll at different rates to help give that 3D depth perspective? It would be nice to have objects (like the turtles and shrooms) moving in the foreground too.
I actually want a live wallpaper that looks just like super mario bros wii, with moving backgrounds and all.
It's hard to develop, hard to play with, and icons and widget won't help you to play. The best solution is to download a super mario bross game in the market, I don't know if it already exist but it should
A game is not what i want, i want a live wallpaper that looks like the game, if you know what i mean? I want no interaction with it beyond the change in perspective when i scroll between screens.
It doesnt have to be mario bros either, it can be anything where the objects on the wallpaper scroll at different rates to give that change in perspective.
It's called parallax scrolling. It's already in some LWPs like Silhouette but not quite in the way you're referring to.
So, yeah it definitely could be done, but as far as I'm aware hasn't yet.
Parallax Scrolling... cool, thanks.
I just found a live wall paper that appears to use it, MaryJane, from the marketplace.
The leaves in the foreground and middleground move independantly of each other and from the background as well. Looks really cool... if you dont mind the type of leaves being used.
Now, if only someone would make one that mimics mario bros wii.
Yep. The MaryJane LWP is from the same group that did Silhouette.
The parallax scrolling technique was used heavily by Nintendo back in the day, as well as the PC demoscene. I'm willing to bet they pulled it out for SMB Wii as a sort of homage to the oldschool days.
Anyways, I vote that YOU start working on a LWP featuring PS in the SMB style (holy initialisms). The concept is simple enough.
thats how you play mario

I have no coding experience and wouldnt know where to start.
Someone just released a sweet live wallpaper with mario playing in the background... not exactly what i wanted, but still pretty cool.
Weird question I know but I had an idea for a ninja app. I found a wallpaper online that a guy who does art work with chalk and was drawing on a sidewalk. I was wondering if anyone would mind helping me make a ninja app. The idea is to design a wallpaper and having a design using app labels on a sidewalk or something with good texture. I will attach an image in a bit to give you an idea of what I was thinking.
Can anyone make an app that will place a signature on my xbox live messaging on my phone? I know it may not be possible but it would be great
