Just created a little wallpaper so thought I'd share here too.
If you like it use it, if you don't that's fine....move along ?

Does anyone have or know how to get the default slide show wallpapers that I think come with sense (the girl in the white dress, the dog, various sceneries, two other ones with girls in glasses)? These are the only ones I can remember so far, and I'm pretty sure there are more. I like some of the wallpapers and would like to include them into a slideshow with other images, but I'm not able to find these images.
Thank you in advance for helping me.
I was getting pretty frustrated with how our phones crop the wallpaper these days.
I was looking and looking for a wallpaper template, but couldn't find one. So I made one.
It's in Paint.net's PDN, Gimp's XCF, and Photoshop PSD
The wallpaper I made in the screenshot was using the PDN.
I only made the XCF and PSD for those of you who do not like using Paint.net, I assume they work just as well, but haven't tested them.
If they don't work properly, let me know and I'll try to fix them.
In the Templates.7z package you'll find the blank E4GT-Template.xxx which is 960x800 @ 206ppi
I had read that the stock wallpapers were 960x800, which seems to be the size of the cropping block when you set a wallpaper.
480x800 is the screen size, you'll notice there are (2) 240x800 black bars on the sides, these get truncated.
All you have to so is add whatever image you want as a layer behind the "Box" layer.
What you can see is what you'll get when you set the wallpaper on your phone.
I've attached a screenshot of my phone with a Borderlands 2 style wallpaper I made.
Just for you, I've included the template for it as well: BL2-Blank.pdn
You'll notice a solid red background on the this one, this is to check for gaps.
If there are no gaps, you won't see it when you flatten the image, or just delete it.
If you have more than 5 pages of stuff, you'll need to change the size of the top box for the page indication thing.
This is for people who are stock, or don't have scrolling wallpaper as an option.
Feedback is appreciated.
Enjoy!
If you're running stock, one of Samsung's updates actually disabled the scrolling wallpaper feature - originally, you would in fact make wallpapers 960x800. It's actually one of the reasons I went and rooted my phone - I loved that feature, and I thought it was lame that they took it out.
That being said, this is very useful, especially for those running a single screen setup, or running stock. I haven't made a wallpaper in such a long time - I'll edit one into this post for anyone interested. Maybe a Fallout inspired one?

This reminds me that I forgot to mention a few things in the original post.
Something Fallout/Pip-boy inspired could be cool!
Best game ever!! Can't stop playing.

The wallpapers are extremely annoying. I never uses scrolling before, but when they took it away it messed up everything.

I got the Nova Launcher from Play while it was on sale, made a background for it using the same template and made some folder backgrounds
The regular grey bar was ripped from the site same as the yellow one I used on the Maya background.
The regular box is made from it.
The Modified images I smoothed the coloring out, and made the orange a little darker, preserving the highlights.
I'm including the background if anyone wants it, and a screenshot of how I used it.
You need to make the dock margins Large.

Hey guys,
So I've got an awesome theme design in mind, and i need to create a wallpaper design that lines up with the elements of my theme (all the Widgets etc).. For example, the wallpaper having a sidebar, or segments for the Widgets and whatnot to sit inside of.. stuff like that..
Anyhow, I'm gonna give it a shot, but im not super pro with Photoshop. So to save some time, i was going to try to just find a wallpaper that i can work with. So here's my question:
- Where can I find wallpapers that have these types of "layout" style of designs, that i can use for creating a theme with?
Been searching everywhere but can't seem to figure out how to word it correctly :/
Thanks in advance!

Like, is there a specific name for that type of wallpaper? Something like "layout wallpaper" or something I can search for to find the type of wallpapers I'm looking for?

Google "Icon Shelf Wallpaper for Android/IOS".. It's rather simple to make those wallpapers from any image actually, so if you'd prefer your own custom image, you could google "how to make wallpapers with icon shelves for android/ios". ^^

I usually just use a bitmap on a bottom layer, because you can adjust whatever image you bring in, allowing you to use whatever image you want as a background/starting point.
Hey everybody. I'm brainstorming about a Launcher I want to develop, but I wanted it Huawei/Xiaomi styled, that means it doesn't need the App Drawer.
I've been searching high and low for it, I've been to stackoverflow and even searched Google, but couldn't find anything about coding the launcher that way. Also, how can I embed my own icon pack? I want to develop a new one for this launcher, but don't know how to implement it in my app.
If you guys could give me advice on how to do that, I would be very grateful! Thanks in advance!
PS: Another question, what do you like in a Launcher? Bright colours, simple icons, rounded or square, cool custom wallpapers?
I want to add a lot of stuff to it and still keep it very minimalistic. :highfive:
Hi guys, as the title says, I'd like to make a more advanced live wallpaper but not super sure where to start. I've been able to make my own live ones using the android canvas along with just typical animated images etc. But was hoping to do something more complicated now, like the nexus live wallpapers and things like that.
Current thought is that I should use openGL or something similar to develop it. But was wondering if there was other ways, such as some sort of unity engine or some other way to make more complicated animations .
Thanks all
