Thumbs up New app: Today's Wallpaper
App Name: Today's Wallpaper (Android Market)

Intruduction:

Bing is definitely more than just a search engine. It's a big gallery. Bing updates its background in different countries everyday. The background composes of all the classic photos and paintings. This background may appear smaller on a PC, but in our phone, but just perfect.

With Today's Wallpaper, you can easily get the beautiful background in different countries everyday, and can make your cell phone wallpaper every day in sync Bing.

I for one like this idea. I have been using worldtour for my backgrounds. That one updates to a different webcam from around the world. I am getting a little bored with this as it can be pixelated and doesn't have as many cams as I wish. If these are high quality pics I think it would be great. I will deffinetly check it out.

Well let's put it this way, how much money you want to bet the developer didn't pay for any of the images he is providing through an app he is selling?

And why bing? Does this have something to do with Microsoft's search engine? Hello? Google Phone?


Sorry, but this app smells very fishy to me. There are many, many "picture" apps on the market that are just designed to weasel money out of people. Just look at all the celebrity wallpaper nonsesne. To be honest I'm surprised this guy even replied to the thread as he just cut and pasted the market description (which makes no sense).

Maybe I'm too cynical, but I'll bet this app is crap.

Hello, alotspacket, I am the developer of this app...

My original intention is to share the beautiful background of Bing, the size just fits Android Phone. I use Google's search engine also. You can download this app for free(full-function).

But I think you are right, too many "picture" apps on the market. Maybe I should develop another app...

Thank you for your reply.

OK, I'm going to say this one last time:


YOU'RE STEALING THE IMAGES AND CHARGING PEOPLE FOR SOMETHING YOU STOLE.

Microsoft pays Corbis and Getty for those images who in turn pay the photographers.

You're not allowed to just take stuff off the net and charge people for it willy nilly.

I hope the mods lock this thread, I'm off to report you to the market.
