I have a really cool wallpaper that goes perfect with my Tycho / ISO50 homescreen theme, but I'd like to add some "life" to it. So I'm looking for a LWP that allows users to choose their own background. Case in point: Pixel Rain can do just that. So can a lot of the 3D effect ones. Just looking for other options. I know they're out there. Maybe a beam/ics one that allows this.
I would LOVE if this one could use a custom background image: Molecules Livewallaper. So sexy.

I have searched high and low for a widget similar to the stock widget that will
a) display images in a sideshow, and
b) allow me to set the size of the widget.
I've seen a lot that will do one, but not the other, and the ones that CAN do both have a HUGE frame. I just want a simple, plain (stock-like) frame.
I don't know how, or I would make one myself.
The future looks so... Vibrant
I was kind of surprised the stock one wasn't a slide show...
Hello all...
I've looked around and can't find anything to help me out, but I know this can be done. I have Luncher Pro Plus and have a dock background that i would love to see fully. To do this, I need transparent dock images, but don't want the stock ones that came with Launcher Pro. I would love to create my own, but don't know what file type to save as or how exactly to go about this. I know it can be done as the stock Launcher Pro ones are transparent! I have Corel PaintShop available to use as well as drawing software (CAD). So I can draw practically anything I want and save it to any format I want. I just don't know the process of making a white image with a black background to have a transparent background.
To put it this way; I want essentially my dock background (which is nearly solid black) to have a drawn outline of the phone, person, boxes, message, world (see attached image)... no gradient filler like on Launcher Pro ones.
If anyone can point me to a tutorial I am missing somewhere, or simply let me know how to do this, It would be greatly appreciated!! I'm trying to customize my phone and what better way to do it than with completely custom images!!!!
you have to save it as png or gif file (I recommend png, it's higher quality). I use photoshop so I don't know how to do it on corel, this is what a quick google search turned up: http://www.axialis.com/tutorials/tutorial-misc002.html
PS: an image with the grey and white squares as a background while in corel means there's no background (transparent)

I also found... It took me a while playing with corel but I figured it out!! I love having icons that no one else has.... I would recommend everyone playing around with custom icons!

GIMP works very well to edit these images. I have photoshop CS5 for everyday use at work, but when I edit anything in the framework, I use GIMP. Its free, just google it.
Is there any way to use live wallpapers on the lockscreen without using an external app such as widgetlocker? I don't like it at all and it also messes with other lockscreen widgets such as those from poweramp/winamp.
Not yet, but why you need this?
try miui
I don't think that it's really needed and usable. Did you have a look on the miui-unlocker-app?
goto app.miui.com
@078gregory: I don't "need" it, but i like having a consistent look throughout the UI. What's the purpose of android if you can't tailor to your liking?
@[email protected]: Thanks, will have a look although i don't think it's what i'm looking for.
Has anyone created a theme that incorporates the Parallax effect? I had a go but, to be honest, I've no idea what I'm doing. I created a wallpaper with a large blurred circle and three smaller ones( These would be the shadows). Then, using UCCW, I placed solid coloured circles over them. These would eventually become the clock and icons. Then I used 3D Image LWP for the Parallax thing. It kinda worked but unfortunately I couldn't line the circles up properly because I'm a noob.
It was just an idea that I thought someone with more skill would like to try.
Cheers.
