please help guys.
z3c is my first smartphone. hahaha. so noob with this.
Settings > Personalisation > Lock Screen. There you can crop the photo, to look the exact same, if the resolution is high enough. From your screens it looks like it was cropped too much.
Problem with the xperia homescreen is that you have to have scrollable wallpaper and the album app always zooms it in even if the resoIution is good. I don't know why.
So your picture that you want to use as wallpaper has to be much larger than 720x1280 resolution in order to preserve quality when you use sony album app.
My solution is to use quickpic app instead of album and use it to set wallpaper. That way you just have to be sure that your picture is of 1280 pixels height (or larger) and that way it will be perfect fit for the homescreen.
But if the picture is vertical, like for using with single homescreen it will be zoomed even with quickpic. In that case I think you have to use different launcher that allowa non-scrollable wallpapers.
I recommend using pictures of 2048x1280 resolution in combination with quickpic. They're perfect as scrollable wallpapers.
I hope this helps.
hi guys. i found a way to fix the problem. i attached the photo to a much larger file that. then just cropped it with quickpic or album. not sure about this.
just needs a little tweaking with the cropping and positioning.
thanks for the help guys.

I prefer the standard gallery app instead of desire option however the images are shown in a bad order. When I go to the camera folder the most recently taken photo is at the end of the list.
Any ideas how to change this, many thanks
I would like to know this also?
It's very annoying when you want to send a picture message, or view the photo you just took and you have to scroll over to see the pic...
edit: And I'm not using a desire rom...
anyone know anything about this?
Just take the Gallery3D.apk from a stock .zip file, or Cyanogen, and install it on the Desire ROM. You don't even have to do anything complicated - just install it like any other application. Or, with an app installer, or task manager (some do this).
No offense, but I don't understand why it was hard to come up with this idea?
the issue is with the desire camera and not the gallery or photos application.

Pro-Tip #1:

Clicking 'All Photos' brings you to Photo #1 (the oldest one).
Clicking 'Camera Shots' brings you to the last photo (the most recent taken photo).
Pro-Tip #2:
Press menu to activate Grid View. Obviously, this makes browsing a lot of photos 100 times faster.

My profile Picture is 180x186 pixels. It looks better if you give it slight rounded corners and a border. (Only in the first preview)
Profile Pic was set as the background of an Elixir Widget and the application it linked to was my launcher (or anything that takes you to the homescreen)
The text below it ( "Name, Locked" )was made with minimalistic text.
Layout done with WidgetLocker, so there is lots of room for customization and improvement. I'm also considering doing a slider in the style of the password field in Win7.
Backgrounds are zipped.
Enjoy!

Could you tell me how to do it exactly?

Great concept, thanks for the idea
I apologize if this is in the wrong place. But I figured this would be the best place since we have a lot of themers that use photoshop and Gimp.
I decided to start creating my own wallpapers with Gimp. I'm setting my image to a 960x800. However, when I try and set with multipicture live wallpaper on my phone, it cuts it off on the left side when set to 'show full screen' and shortens too much when set to 'show whole image'
I'll attach screens to better illustrate.
So exactly what dimensions do I need to set when using Gimp to make my wallpapers work with my phone screens.
I have a 4.3" screen with ADW ex as the launcher.

Ideally, it should be showing up like the right hand picture but with the home/media/tools text on the left.
Dont know if this will help but this is what i do when I use Multiwall.
I usually use 3 screens on my phone so I make a wallpaper 1440x800 since my res is 480x800 .
I Then crop my wallpaper into Three 480x800 pieces . Then when i get into Multi wall I set it up for the 3 screens and put one on each screen and I dont lose anything .
Hope this helps
Have you tried Super Wall Lite ? That might be an easier option, not too familiar with it though.
I'll check out superwall.
I typically only use 3 screens myself. I have my main screen, a calendar screen, and then a miscellaneous screen. I use folders and shortcuts a lot.
Thanks given!
I was running the Xperia Launcher with its nice animated weather widget when this happened :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It seems like the wallpaper I chose and the weather widget decided to match each other in style. It looks gorgeous (at least, to me) and it made me think of a great widget/wallpaper combinaton that could be explored : imagine a animated weather widget app that would change your wallpaper according to the weather, in order to have them both matching in style. The result would be a still wallpaper image that would be only animated in the widget's frame. Actually, there could be a all set of widgets like that...
I know there are ways to achieve something similar already through several apps or automated tools but the only way to make it look good in my opinion is to have the animated weather widget being based on the wallpaper image itself, not just something "kind of" similar.
What do you guys think ?
beautiful widgets allows you to use any wallpaper you want and overlays it with animated current conditions to make it a live wallpaper. The background wallpaper stays the same but the effects that are added are excellent quality. so for example if it's cloudy your wallpaper will have clouds moving across the top of your screen.... If it's foggy then the entire wallpaper is covered in a moving misty fog.... If it's raining there are clouds moving across the screen with rain falling from them and water droplets appearing on your screen. and to be clear, the weather conditions and animations are constant. It's not a simple "opening effect" as I've seen on some apps.

I tried wallpaper wizardrii and I've tried using infranview on my PC to resize the pic but it didn't do it right for some reason. And wizardrii got it to fit on the main homescreen but it doesn't make it scroll properly. So I was just hoping someone would do it for me cause apparently I am a retarded and can't do it haha

Any standard 4:3 size wallpaper should work. Problem is your images are not 4:3 (1024x768, 800x600, 640x480,etc..)
You need your image to be wider than it is high. There will be no way to get the image to display right unless you over lay it on a larger image.
