It seems when you change wallpapers it doesn't crop whole picture. How do you capture the whole picture? Thanks

How to set any picture as wallpaper? when i try to set a picture as wallpaper it asks me to crop the picture. but i want to set the whole picture as wallpaper. cheers
Hey,
I think if you want to have the whole image as your home wallpaper it has to be in 640x480 format. Lockscreen wallpaper has to be 320x480 if you want it without cropping.
the prob is that i have put some 640*480 pictures in sd card. went to gallery and then set 1 of these pictures as wallpaper. but found out that the middle part of a 640*480 picture was stretched and set as wallpaper. in samsung omnia hd which is 640*360 if i set a 640*360 picture as wallpaper the full picture is set from top to bottom.
is it some sort of prob with hero?

Hero has by default (SenseUI) 7 home screens so the background is behind all of those screens. Im not totally sure what do you mean by streching?
If your image is 640x480 you can select the whole image with the green cropping box and then you will have the whole image as a background. Works for me at least.
Pume: i understand what u r saying and i found in the net that many user follow the same method but in my hero if i select whole image with the crop green box it doesnt save the whole image as wallpaper. it still sets a portion of the image as wallpaper. and all my pictures are 640*480.
This definitely isn't a problem with the Hero in general as it works fine on my phone as well. I set the picture to the background by going through the settings, personalise, home screen menus. If you're using a different method, maybe that's the problem...
works fine on mine. Obviously you know that you can NEVER see the whole of the wallpaper at once, bot if you scroll left all the way, you should see the left edge of the wallpaper, and if you scroll all the way to the right you see the right hand side of the wallpaper.
Is that not happening?
There's a good free app on the market called 'Wallpaper Set and Save' that allows you to use the full image - it also uses the full quality image so wallpapers look much better
Hey, does anyone know what the optimum resolution for a Wildfire wallpaper would be? I'm going by the assumption that users will have HTC Sense enabled and will have 7 screens to scroll through.
It doesn't matters. When you choose a wallpaper to apply you can crop it to fit Just drag the frames and the selection will be enlarge

Yeah I know that works, I just wondered if there was a resolution in which the picture didn't need cropping or anything.
480x320 is the resolution for wallpaper,with this resolution you cover 7 screens of htc sense.

Works like a charm, thanks dude
Use Wallpaper Set & Save when applying a bakground image, it will give you the best quality rather than the stock method that somehow lowers the image quality.

I'd be interested in the answer to your question, but if you want some good wallpaper while you are waiting, make sure you are searching for qHD wallpapers for other qHD phones, such as the Atrix.
Alternately, you can search for a specific size image with google image search online. Standard is twice the width, by the height of your screen.
qHD = 540x960
Wallpaper = 1080x960
Good luck making your own.
What I do is take an image that has a higher pixel size than what our screen has and crop it to 1080 x 960. The thing is, it doesn't get as sharp as I'd like. I feel like it should be super sharp. Icons are super sharp, why not the wallpaper, ya know. Does it have something to do with the screen itself?
Using the size parameters mentioned in the previous posts you can use photoshop or gimp (free!) and create your own custom wallpapers.

I noticed when viewing an image in the gallery and zooming it in to the size of the screen the picture is crystal clear, but when you set it as a wallpaper it gets a little pixelated so we know its not the hardware or picture itself. Could someone explain this, maybe the software could be tweaked? Try it out, the attached picture is a good example but it does it with all pictures.
Problem solved
What happens is that android compresses the pictures too much when setting them, causing distortion. Using an app called "Wallpaper Set And Save" sets the wallpaper and makes it crystal clear!
does anyone know what the resolution for the lockscreen pictures? It doesnt have scrolling and I hate the crop of the picture because it makes the picture grainy, I would like to know the actual resolution and not 1280x720....thanks

that IS the actual resolution. That is teh screen resolution so none scrolling images are 1280x720. Scrolling images for homescreens are 1280x1440
ok well let me refrarise the question I guess, what is the resolution of the lock screen so you aren't forced to crop the picture? @ 1280x720 you have to crop the picture, hence the crappy quality.
Sounds like you need to have the resolution in the opposite direction

Don't crop the picture. When the box shows up with the crop tool, just leave it alone and hit OK.
As long as your pictures are 720 x 1280 or larger, it should be as clear as day.

In fact, it is 720x1280 for no-scrolling and 1440x1280 for scrolling
My solution to that was viewing desired picture in gallery, take screen shot and then place it as a lock screen pic. Thanks to that it is saved at screen resolution. Hope this helps.
