I remember in a previous ROM I had (Cant remember which one D: ) when setting a wallpaper I had the ability to choose a portrait wallpaper, or a scrollable "wide wallpaper". I would love to get that back, as I have many 480x800 wallpapers that I have to blow-up and pixelate because I cant set is as a portrait wallpaper D:
Suggestions?

Just to be clear, you want one wallpaer to just stay in the center of the screen?
If so press menu-->prefences-->appearance-->Disable wallpaper scrolling.
If that's not what you want, just say so.

No, cause even with wallpaper scrolling turned off it still wants you to crop the image to be scrollable. I have tried 5+ launchers but im pretty sure it has to do with whatever handles the wallpaper chooser.

Answer me this, is the wallpaper you have a portrait wallpaper? And if so try this, go into prefrences and then homescreen. Change number of screens to 1 and then set your wallpaper. Does that fix it?

Negatory.
It still wants me to crop the photo in a 4:3 ratio.
Did this with GO Launcher, LauncherPro, and ADW EX. To no avail.

Download picspeed hd wallpapres app...when setting up a wallpaper u go to picspeed app.. u have many choices there..
I have no account for u to donate but atleast u can point a thumb upwards!
So I've read several threads about getting wallpapers to fit just right on the Touch Pad using Wallpaper Wizardii and Wallpaper Set & Save. I've downloaded both and still can't get my wallpapers to fit right. The problem I'm having is no matter what I do, each wallpaper is being cropped into. Am I just doing this wrong or is there a better way to do it?
Which option are you selecting in wallpaper wizardrii? If I want to set an image without crop I use "exact" on an image that's the same resolution as the touch pad screen, that seems to work for me.
put a pic of my nephew as the wallpaper, it asked me to crop it and i did. But when the picture got applied it was zoomed in and was not what i had selected.
I have zeam launcher installed and tried it with the default launcher as well and same results. From what i can see when cropping the wallpaper you have to do it so it stretches to all 5 pages and scrolls, but still don't get why it zooms in. I installed zeam because i only want one page and one static image 800x400 but the zoom is really annoying making everything larger then it should be.
Anyone have a fix?
When you set it as the wallpaper usually you have to crop it and choose the size.

The phone is 960 pixels tall, so rather than 800 x 400, resize the image (if you have the original source) to something like 1440 x 960. (It may need to be wider if you have more than 5 screens, and if you don't want wallpaper to pan as you move between homescreens obviously you want 540 x 960, or, of course, just crop it.) The key thing, I think, is to get the height of the image to 960 pixels.
I used to have problems with stock changing my custom wallpaper to the default one when I had photos that were larger than that selected as wallpaper, but since resizing them I've not had that problem.
is there an app or some sort of program where it'll allow me to convert some of my fav wallpapers which are desktop size fit for the GT7.7?
This size should be fine for the Tab. When selecting a wallpaper from Gallery the wallpaper is cropped and resized. The vertical resolution in Portrait mode is higher than most desktops' anyway.

what do you mean 'this'?
I've downloaded the Samsung 1241 x 2686 wallpaper, but when you add more than one home screen you can scroll it. Is there a max width to make my own wallpaper?
