So what happened to the scrolling of the background? When I go to set a stock ICS background it severely crops more than half the image, what am I missing here?
Have you tried a different launcher like Nova or Apex? If not I use an app called Wallpaper Wizardrii that lets you set the exact size wallpaper without cropping.

How do I save the background image of a screen on my GT-P7500?
Are you trying to save the wallpaper in the launcher? Otherwise, you can always take a screen capture.

The wallpaper in the the launcher (I think), but I'm not sure what the difference is.
Screen capture saves the screen as you see it (wallpaper+icons,etc.), wallpaper is just the background.
I would also like to know how to save the current wallpaper on my Galaxy Vibrant (Gingerbread). My current wallpaper does not appear in the gallery or in available wallpapers list and I don't want to lose it if I decide to try out different wallpapers. Is there a way to save it?
Since installing CM9 I have set the homescreen tables to 1 (I like to have a clean homescreen with no apps) however when setting the wallpaper it still shows the left and right smaller squares when cropping for additional homescreens... this in effect is not allowing me to crop my picture the way I want to (like how my lockscreen is cropped)
Any suggestions?
In CM9 on my I9100 it would recognize that there was only one homescreen and the cropping tool for wallpapers would lose the additional homescreen boxes either side of the main box...

Use this app. It works like a Live Wallpaper and it will allow you to set the wallpaper without cropping it.
Hi there
When trying to apply a wallpaper (e.g. a picture taken with my SGS3 camera) to my homescreen I usually have to resize it via the gallery-app. But resizing lets the picture shrink to a default-form that does not cover my 5-homescreens. Therefore I always get some black bars on the right and the left side...
Any idea how I can fix this or how I can keep the gallery app from not resizing my pictures to the default-size that only seems to cover 1 homescreen?

Are u using any other launcher than TW? Or scrollable TW mod? one work around is using "gallery ICS" from market to set your wallpaper
Currently I'm using the Nova Launcher. Is this an issue? Will try to download the ICS Gallery and hope it works well with the Nova Launcher
***Update: Wow, it works. Gallery ICS can resize my pictures and they fit to my 5-Homescreen Nova Launcher.... GREAT!! Many thanks

:victory: The default gallery asks you to crop the picture since TW launcher does not support scrollable wallpapers. However its a problem with other launchers. You can either disable wallpaper scrolling in launcher settings or use this gallery to set full length scrollable wallpapers

i had this on the omega rom.
when selecting photo from gallery, have your phone in landscape and it will fill all screens. when its in portrait it only fills the screen you are on.

Hi guys,
I've got a problem with my wallpaper on Apex Launcher.
I only have one Homescreen that is not scrollable. In other words, it is fixed.
To set my 480x800 px wallpaper as the homescreen background I used Wallpaper Wizardrii.
The problem is when I close some apps (e.g. firefox or some games), my wallpaper slides to the right, so that it doesn't fit to my screen anymore. (The left half of my screen is black and the other half is the wallpaper).
I think it could be a problem with the no scrolling options of Apex Launcher and Wizardrii.
Does someone else got such a problem and maybe has a solution to solve it?
Thank you

That's probably because you have 1 Homescreen, the stock is 5.
