Does anyone have any info on how to create a multi-image picture pack like the ones included that you can use on the lock screen? I would like to make my own from my own set of photos but can't find any info about it online.
I've tried to load a HEIC file (same format as used for the Macbook's dynamic background where multiple photos are in in HEIC file). But that does not work, it must be some other format...

Are there any other programs out there that can change the today screen wallpaper aside from the standard image and video viewer provided by Microsoft? I have looked all over and cannot find a single lead to any programs that can do such a task. The standard image viewer is extremely slowwwww! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

file explorers and photo album viewers work
So I've been creating icons in photoshop to match Windows 7 widgets i found on these forums. I noticed that the icons I create are of MUCH lower image quality than the widgets.
I look at the icons I created on my laptop and compare them to the ones on my phone's screen, and they look 10x worse on my phone!
So I decide to check the file size. The .pngs I created on my laptop are around 100kb while the same .pngs transferred to my sd card are less than half that size!
Is there anyway I can get the images from my laptop to the phone without compression?
When you export/create the PNGs from Ps, are you making sure to set the quality to full? By default, it will compress a good amount.
Yup quality is set to max. Images look fine on my laptop, its only on the phone where the image quality and file size is reduced.
How are you getting them onto your phone? Just transferring via USB? Also, are you using the stock Gallery app anywhere in the equation?
Yes just through usb. Doesnt matter what app i view it through the image is certainly of lesser quality and smaller file size
Hello all- Does anyone know if there is a way we can use flash (.swf) wallpapers on our homescreen on the I9000 ?
I do not mean the lockscreen but the next screen (I use no lock anyway).
If we can use live wallpapers such as WP clock which tell time, I imagine there must be a conversion tool which can convert .swf files into whichever file live wallpapers are ??
Does anyone know ?
I do have some amazing flash wallpapers which contain some gorgeous clocks and it's a shame if we cant use them on this great mobile.
Cheers, LL-
Not so sure....
Trying to open a swf file, I get a pop-up telling that "File type swf not found"
highly doubt so, live wallpaper is an .apk, it's an application itself, natively Android doesn't support .swf file as live wallpaper, unless some developer out there manage to capture the swf, convert it and create a new .apk on the fly within the mobile, but I didn't see such an application so far.
OK Cheers for that guys.
I managed to open an .swf file in "my files" and it shows up but the clock portion of the wallpaper does not keep time, just a mish mash of lines instead of the time itself.
Cheers again, LL13-
Follow me on this...
Take a picture: it will be stored under /DCIM/Camera folder
Open QuickPic: it shows the picture under the Camera album
Open SonyAlbum: under the Images tab you will find the same picture under the current month label
Open a file manager and move the picture from /DCIM/Camera folder under the /Pictures folder
Open QuickPic: it shows the picture under the Pictures album
Open SonyAlbum: under the Images tab you will find two copies of the same picture under the current month label; if yoh look at the details of both pictures, one comes from /storage/emulated/0/Pictures and one from /storage/emulated/legacy/Pictures
Now I know that they areboth access pointsto the same physical folder, so tehre are not actually two copies of the same pictures, still Sony album sees both of them. I tried clearing cache, data etc. with no avail.
If your like me I hate having the blank blue thumbnail for any 360 videos I throw in the 360 folder. Download this:

All you need to do is make a png image file then and use this program to make the .pvr file, then that will show in the headset menu for your 360 video. I make mine in photoshop, save as .png then use this program to convert em to .pvr. Works great and you have a thumbnail then
Which part of the program do you use? It loaded like 8 different programs.

PvrTexTool. Ive been making a 400x400 image of what I want in photoshop for thumbnail. Save as a .png then. Open the .png in PvrTextool and resave it then as a .pvr file. Name it the same as the 360 video and drop it in the same folder. It will show then as the preview thumb .
