Hi there,
i would like to create an Resident Evil Umbrella Corporation style theme for our droids, perfect would be an animated Umbrella Corp Logo live wallpaper.
Could anyone create a live wallpaper from this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzHcZabNGqw
Best would be if the Umbrella Corp letters on the left corner could disappear.
Thanks, would really be great
Download the video using any means.
Convert it to a bunch of images (pngs)
Use a batch rename program like (faststone) to rename em to 1.png,2.png,3.png....
Go in the nexus themes/apps section and look for my "Custom Lwp Script" or in market an app called Custom Lwp if i recall.
They both allow u to create lwp out of sequence of images.
Good Luck
Thanks for the hint
It gaves me 360 images in reduced quality, isn't maximum of images 300?

Hmm yes it is.
Either eliminate some while maintaining a smooth animation or get the app i was talking about from market "Custom Lwp" if i recall.

Reads the pictures from sd card, right? hmmm... not so good for card life, especially when running a desire hd rom which works half from sd, too.
i've notice that on the custom lwp it says that it must be the exact same size as the phone resolution but for live wallpapers like mariolive its scrollable would we be able to make scrollable LWP with this as well?
threads a little bit old but i was wondering if anyone knew how to convert a swf to individual png's frame by frame, searching google got me everything in reverse but nothing like i wanted

Quick version: no such thing.

and does anyone made it?
Actually pretty sure you can convert an swf to an avi and then convert that to individual pngs.
Avi to pngs can be done with gimp and the gap package.

Would drain your battery, but you can use Video Live Wallpaper.
Lets you set your own video as a live wallpaper.
as far as killing your SD Card, would you be able to push the files to your device internal storage?
Perhaps not, im not too familiar with your device.
Sorry if this doesn't work.
I have spent the last several hours downloading wallpapers from 4walled.org for my phone. The wallpapers look so nice on the computer, and I really wanted to start theming my phone with them.
So I've loaded up the 300+ wallpapers to my SD-card, and as I start browsing through them in the gallery, I have realized one immutable fact: they all look horrible. The gradients aren't really gradient, they're splotchy.
It was my understanding that this phone's LCD was capable of 24bit color? Perhaps it is not and this is where my woes are from. I have also noticed that .PNG backgrounds do seem to look better than the .jpg counterparts.
Any comments or wisdom into selecting backgrounds would be greatly appreciated.
I just looked at some of those images and they dont look that high quality to me. Maybe your monitor is older and made them look better than they are. Check here for some more. Maybe you will find some you like. http://wallbase.cc/start/
Look up "wallpaper set and save" on market, it will eliminate the color banding you get when you set a wallpaper through the gallery app.
Also make sure the resolution on any wall you get is a minimum of 960x800.

I use fish bowl photo which will also eliminate the banding. dodol wallpaper maker works great for setting portrait wallpapers too.

Thank you for that site, I always used Interfacelift.net. Nice addition.
I regularly raid DeviantArt for backgrounds and use Wallpaper Wizardrii to set the wallpapers. WW allows you to set a properly sized background without cropping.

Do you prefer that over the Fish Bowl Gallery? And does it support high-resolution images?

I've never used Fish Bowl. I only just started using WW today, but I would think that the no crop feature would only work on a wallpaper that was at or below the correct size for the display.
its all about nik.bot.nu thanks for wallbase.cc tho, another site to lose large chunks of my life too lmao
I get my wallpapers from socwall.com. Thats where I found my current wallpaper.
Thanks for all the links and the info! I will surely check those out!

Adobe Photoshop Touch is finally out
let's see how it works PS lovers

It's not the most intuitive, but I like it. I'll definitely be doing my serious editing at home but this is a great first start

yea, but the nice thing is they are vector based, & you shouldn't be worried about pixels anymore

What? Photoshop, a bitmap application, works with vectors? Explain this to me. I am stumped.

Photoshop Touch is bitmap = pixel based
Adobe Ideas is Vector based.
I got the Photoshop last night and was so impressed by it I bought collage this morning and proto an hour ago. The cloud integration is amazingly fluid and easy to use. The implementation of google image search built in saves a lot of time from having to first download from the web to your os and then upload to photoshop.Collage has an amazing feature whereyou can crop any image straight from the [email protected] This is a high class set of apps that can bring out the inner artist in anybody.
I watched this video a few weeks ago -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89hej8N1Me0
I was so impressed by that and the preview video on the Adobe site that the minute I got the email saying it was available, I purchased it without hesitation. The only limitation is that it can only save files to 1600px. Excellent app!

as far as I get it, the photos & stuff are (of course) pixel & not vector, but while working it processes vector for selection & things, I found it really damn precise if it's not vector
I was disappointed to find out that Adobe Ideas wasn't a mobile version of Illustrator which I had thought it would be, I read "vector based" in the description and was stoked, but found out it was just another drawing application that can transfer over to Illustrator as a vector...not quite the same thing. I wanted point manipulation on the Xoom...would have been really bad ass to do my vectors on a tablet anywhere.
I was reallylooking forward to using photoshop but since it cannot open local files its pretty much a huge dealbreaker for me. Once they add the ability to edit local PSDs ill be jumping right on it..

you can both open your .psd in tablet & opening your .psdx (new format for adobe PS touch) in your pc.
here is how
but few people reported when opening .psd formats in tablet, all the layers are flattened. (for me, it happens only for heavy .psd files)
I know you can do it from the "creative cloud" but I would like to do it from local files like SD card or flash drive.. that would be nice

P.S an option to export to different formats directly
I'm assuming you guys have used Sketch Book Pro? That has a pretty decent PSD export tool (which works with dropbox which I prefer and where all the rest of my stuff is). I agree with the different export ability too.
I got it and it doesn't seem to be working for me

What seems to be the problem?
I haven't seen a lot of good Screensaver sets out there for the nook touch, most don't even properly fit the screen, and I don't care for the two that come with it. I'd like to have this thread be a place where people can post theirs and get lots of awesome ones. The only rule I can think of is all pictures should be .jpg and have to be at 600x800 res.
Installing screensavers is as easy as follows:
Plug nook into computer via usb.
In the internal flash storage go into a folder call screensavers.
Make a new folder in here. Note: the name of the folder will also be the name of the screensaver/set.
Whatever pictures you put in the new folder will be added to that screensaver/set.
I'll start off with a clean version from one of my favorite mangas Elfen Lied! If you would like the non-clean (just 5 extra pictures) pm me.
I gathered a bunch on high resolution personal photos (family, pets, vacations), opened them in gimp, cropped them so that they were the correct ratio than scaled them down to 800x600. Lastly i converted them to grayscale. Some were landscape, some were portrait. If they were landscape i had to rotate them clockwise. The hardest part was trying to get the right ratio without cutting too much out.
They fill the whole screen and look great!

Well, don't forget about these sites for your NST Screensaver pleasure:
The Nook Wallpapers Pool
The Kindle Backgrounds Pool (these work just fine as they are all in exactly the same res as the NST backgrounds)
...and, of course, the ever-popular Nook-Look.com (with screensavers for both color Nooks and e-ink versions)
Lots to choose from.
This sounds stupid, but I'm still looking for other "dead author" pics of famous people... even living authors. I know that the B&N brick and mortar store has one of Stephen King that looks pretty cool. I think that style of portrait is pretty neat. Maybe someone can come up with a Photoshop filter or something to do that...

Anyone want to pack the kindle ones up into screensaver sets(as their already black and white)? And I know someones got to have made their own that they want to show off! Like ones' of their favorite authors or the covers of their favorite books? Drizzit anyone?
I throw some of them together myself
All credit goes to The Kindle Backgrounds Pool for the following files!
These were taken around the net, I can't remeber exactly where .
EDIT: Probably some where taken from nook-look.com...
Pair of Nook Simple Touch Screensavers
Bought my Mom a Simple Touch for Xmas; she likes flowers so I put together a 5-picture flower screensaver for her that includes the "press Nook button" graphic on the bottom. Also, made a light & dark version of the B&N Nook logos for screensavers. Hope somebody can use them.
I'm not really into all that screensavers, cause i dont let my nook rest xD
i like ukiyo-e pictures cause they tend to have high contrast
also check my current desktop, unfortunately my screenshot app takes screens in color ;D
Few of mine screensavers.
This one is awesome... to prank a nook owner.
Also my compilation of Eschers graphics. They look really cool on my nook
That's pretty sweet

Brodsky and Utkin

From the manual tutos on my sig.
I was told to post my question here, so here goes..
Any chance on getting a Dev to take a shot at getting the Live Photo function that's out on the new iPhone S6 plus? Looking for the actual video pic capabilities to create live wallpaper and share as a gif ... Possible?
Thanks for the consideration
Go Into camera and goto modes and check if you have the Animated GIF option if not then in the mode option there is an option to download more modes..download the animated GIF option
Yes, I have it but it doesn't save as a gif when using the animation feature in edits just shows the first pic and will not animate. It's too bad Samsung will not prefect their ideas as is seen with the IPhone. They may seem clueless but at least when they do something it's done right!
For me it works perfectly.
You gave to do a long press when you take a photo in this mode
You were about to save it as a gif or wallpaper? I'll give it another try
Cant imagine this will be hard for someone to copy and sell on the play store, I don't think any special hardware is required.

Its not an iPhone idea anyway, its basically just HTC Zoe.
But can some one copy it. Lol. I want it too cause using it as an wallpaper would be nice.
