A quick Model and render of the android dude... I can do other 3d stuff if there is interest...

Can you make it look less plastic-y, and more realistic? Maybe a desk or end-table in the room. This could make a cool desktop.

(unless this is the best you can do)

Most are sized right for Droid. I like the official Android guy so he is in most of them. They are not all created by me.
The CORRECT size for wallpapers for Droid is 854 H x 960 W. Because you know that the wallpaper scrolls 1/2 to the right and 1/2 to the left. This is not the native resolution (854x480) which is a static dimension on the screen.

I found an excellent site with some great wallpaper images.

The link is "Desktop Wallpapers | Vladstudio.com - free desktop wallpapers, widescreen, dual monitors, iPhone wallpapers, backgrounds for mobile phones, wallpaper clocks, e-cards"

This will take you to the main wallpapers page. Clicking on an image brings up a larger version of it. Then below the image are links to various different image sizes. Right below those links there is a button that says "Download for Mobile Phone." Clicking this button shows a menu with various different small screen sizes. All they way to the right then is the 640x480 link.

Some of these images are just amazing.
(Damn, this is double posted because I clicked the wrong button)

I had to come back and thank you for posting this link. So many incredibly gorgeous images...now all I have to do is settle on just one for my phone. I've narrowed it down to about 20 favorites. Thanks again for the site!

I have 30+ good walls for the Droid that I need to resize. I will edit this post when I manage to do them all (most likely later tonight). The correct dimensions for the Droid are 854 x 960 landscape, right?

Edit: Ok. 30+ turned out to be 124. :\ Took me 2 hours to do. I'm uploading now.

Edit 2: Ok. I'll post the links.

Edit 3: I was going to post all the links but I figured an rar file would be easier. Uploading AGAIN. Remember, it's 124 files.

here you go peeps just knocked this up!!

No Apples Allowed


Too funny!.... Isn't someone who ate and apple the one that started this mess in the first place?...... ah.. maybe it wasn't an apple. :rolleyes:

Reality is.. Apple raised the bar... Now Google raised the bar again... "somehow I don't give credit to Verizon or Moto"...... Then apple will try to raise it again.. .and on we go.

Too Bad At&T is stuck in the mud... aren't those guys called "mud-ducks?"
Apple mad a boo boo by not going with Verizon in the first place... how that Google is in the picture.... I think Google has the bigger camp of geeks.... I'm not sure if apple will be able to keep up.

Meanwhile.. back at the Ranch.....

Should I be trying to find the folder where the system wallpapers are and put my wallpapers in there to store and use?

As of now, I've created a folder called "wallpapers" and just pull out of there to keep separate from all my personal pics.

If I want to use a personal pic, I just copy it to my wallpaper folder too.

Is there a better way?
