Just wanted to share some LWP that I have made. Been hogging these for a while so I figured I should share. I have only run them on BB1.0 and NexBeast 1.0.1. So I doubt they work for CM but you can try ;).

Here is the link livewallpapers.zip


For those that dont know.

#1 Download file and put one of the LWP on the root of your SD card
#2 Rename it to LiveWallpapers.apk
#3 Open up Terminal Emulator and type this

Oh and BTW the wallpapers look great. My laptop is broken so I can't make anhyppy new ones right now :(

UGH that sucks. Any luck with that app you were working on? I tried to modify the NexusMod app so I could put any png I wanted on there. They have it locked down tight though and Im to lazy to build my own app:rolleyes:.

If anyone wants anything like Shizzy was making (put a pic on the background of the Nexus Wallpaper), I can help out. Don't know how fast they will get done, but since Shizzy is down, I figured I should return the favor to others...

Here is a Lakers one I did a few days ago...

That look good Very clean. I think everyone needs to share. You can never have too many LWP. ;)

I don't know if you take requests but I just came across this awesome .gif i think and i was wondering if you could make it into a live wallpaper for the droid...

check it out YTMND - Virtural Acid Trip and let me know

thanks



Very cool but that would take a lot of coding my friend. Im sure its possible but I dont have the time to put into it.

Would the work be in creating each frame in photoshop? If that is the case, I'd be willing to give it a try (but I don't think it is). I just became unemployed, and would be willing to do the frames if that is the case. However, I'm just learning how to theme (by hand, not with MM and such). I don't know enough programming, but I'm a quick learner if you want to tell me what would be necessary to do the code. That said, I'm sure it would take you longer to explain to me how to code it than if you coded it yourself...LOL...

Its the engine that would take a long time. Downdoad any LiveWallpaper.apk and open it up. Look at the nexus.rs file and you will see what Im talking about. I have only messed around with android coding a little bit so Im not great at it but if you think you want to dive into that here is a link to what you would need to do. anddev.org • View topic - Live Wallpaper Tutorial,Live wallpapers with Android SDK 2.1 If you have time on your hands then that site should help you out a lot. Coding in Android is not all that hard but like anything else it takes time to learn. I
