Official Droid X Wallpaper Of The Day! Whats Yours?!

hey guys I need some help... I saved all these images to my computer and transfered them to my droid, but I'm having trouble saving them as wallpaper. Any ideas?

I believe the files have to be in .jpg format (unfortunately all of the ones I made are in the .png format).

I just created a sub-folder in the dcmi directory labeled "Wallpapers" and saved all the background images to this folder.

all the files are .jpg. I followed exactly what you said creating a wallpapers folder in the dcmi directory. When I pull up the file I can't see anything that says add/create to wallpaper

This is kind of a dumb question but how do you make the whole wallpaper fit the screen? I've cropped it so that it uses the whole image, but I think because these images are in the 960x854 resolution it ends up spreading across all 7 homescreens.

I want the wallpaper to fit one screen so that it's stationary when I'm scrolling from one homescreen to the next (kind of like the original wallpapers). Right now, the wallpaper is set so that only some of the image is showing on the homescreen and when I scroll to other screens, you get to see the rest of the picture.

I hope this isn't confusing. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I tried resizing it in Paint (lol) but then the aspect ratio gets messed with.

Ok newbie here.

I have these files on my droid, I have them in the download folder. They are both jpg files. I can click on the files to view them, or press and hold my finger over them to see some options, but I don't see any options to set as my wallpaper.

Any ideas?

I have figured it out. For some reason they were not showing up in my media, but now they are. Once they are there it was easy to get them as wallpaper. I guess I just had to be patient for a few min.
