Willing to make wallpapers

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hey, was wondering if I could make a request for a wallpaper. Well actually, its more like a few. I have the multiple pix live wallpaper and was looking to make a SF giants theme around it. I wish to request anywhere from 5-7 wallpaper with different players on each one in the form of trading cards. Players I would like on the cards are

Tim Lincecum
Matt Cain
Buster Posey
Aubrey Huff
Brian Wilson
Cody Ross
Madison Bumgarner

If u could just have the name and the number of the player on each one and/or incorporate the 2010 world series logo too. i know its a lot but I figure worst comes to worst, you'll just say no. In absolutely no rush to get this either so feel free to take all the time u need on this. Thanks in advance :)

And... Here's the final four. Again, hope that you like them - especially since you've now got seven of them! :D

Same deal to save, so,
Click 'em ↓

Bumgarner


Ross


Huff


Wilson

Yeah, I can do something like that for you. I'll need to know what text, in order from left to right, you'd like me to attach to the dock.

It's gettin' pretty darn busy in here, so give me a day or two to get 'er done.

Phone, Gmail, app drawer icon - preferably a non text icon, so any graphic you think would look good, XDA, Google Voice - just Voice for the icon works fine.
If it isn't to much trouble, if you could make a variant with the Voice icon replaced with SMS since I swap between the two occasionally, t'would be appreciated.

Feel free to tend to all the wallpaper requests first, as always, I'm in no rush. :p

WB NightAngel, and thanks. Now, if you think for a second that I'm buying that you mailed any WaterPik, you really are full of Bologna! (See what I did there?) :D

/facepalm!!
You doubt me Wallpaper boy!! How dare you!! I shipped it Fed Ex!!


Ok, on to business... Sure, I'll see if I can come up with something along those lines. Not feeling creative at all right now, so it probably wont be until later tonight or tomorrow.



Yeah, I thought those were nice too. Too bad I had no part of creating them other than cropping/resizing/reposting... :eek:;)

Still it is always nice to see your own city... Think I'm gonna rock the GABP one... maybe.....

Wanna be a little more specific here? Young or old Indy? Any ideas on backgrounds?
Original Indy (there was actually a 'Young Indiana Jones' with Sean Patrick Flannery, while pretty good NOT what i was thinking about.
Classic Temple Of Doom with some whip action, possibly with backgrounds showing crazy dude pulling dudes heart out or ark of the covenant..... No rush for real...... i probably wont even be back online for a few days:(

Oh yea, LOVED lana and kara. (the wallpapers looked good as well, lol)

Cool, glad you liked those (get yer minds outta the gutter people- I mean the wallpapers! :p)

OK, I'll get on the Indy one after I get caught up here (those 2 should hold you over for a bit...). And Sean Patrick Flannery?!? PFFFT! No chance of that!

off topic: There were like 15 young indiana jones full length movies (straight to tv) they were actually pretty cool....

on topic: anything lana and kara is WIN!! (oops, wrong thread)
Keep up the great work player and no rush, get yourself caught up and such first........

(i'll be back with that tracking number)

eyebeam is it possible you could edit the last wallpaper you did for me? I want the second andy to be hanging, like a monkey from the clock instead of poking out from underneat....is it possible?

Here's the problem I see with that idea - To do that, I'd need to put the android over the clock, with the clock as part of the wallpaper. This of course wont work because the clock and weather need to change. There's also no room above the widget to make him hang from above. I'm just not seeing how this works...

well the way I was thinking was maybe make him hang from the bottom of the clock...as I have a large free space...and also if you need him 'slightly' in front of the clock then cant you just make a background LIKE the one behind the clock and then I can just 'remove' the background element in Fancy Widgets and it will still look like there is one there but actually part of the wallpaper

So, here's how I saw this one going down. Is that more or less what you had in mind?

Ok so I think this is where I'm at.

Everyone before stublake's post - http://androidforums.com/android-themes/92348-also-willing-make-wallpapers-50.html#post2649713 - is done. Right?

So, I've got Stu up next (if I hear back from him),
then Toasty's dock,
And finally, NightAngel's Indiana Jones one.

With a little luck, I hope to get those done tomorrow.

If I've missed anyone (hey, it's been a pretty crazy day in here), please let me know and I'll add you to the to-do list.

eyebeam...you are THE man...seriously...is there much you CANT do with wallpapers?

Im not a sports fan myself, but the trading card ones you just did look great....love that look...

snap20110506_085824.jpg


and im sure you'll agree...you did good here again...

you actually helped me alot now....there seems to be a graphic bug with fancy widgets that if you have the screen in 5 rows instead of 4 rows like default for HTC devices (and im guessing others as well) the clock cant format correctly and needs to be dragged and take up 3 rows, BUT the ACTUAL clock only takes up 2 so you have a massive empty space underneath that you can use....hence the idea of SOMETHING under the clock...and hanging andy fills that perfectly...

thanks again :D

oh...and as an edit....I love how the 'andys' looks very mischievous now on my screen....ones eat the dock and the others hanging like a monkey...almost expect him to throw his poo next hahaha...

EDIT: its a low quality pic because of compression just for size reasons.

240x320 is my specs. And it's a Galaxy 5 not S. Also I end up having to be forced to crop and only see a part of the wallpaper. It doesn't scroll like the ones in the wallpaper gallery.

Ahhh. Yes. I got it to work right as well.

*Also needed to tilt phone to the side for panoramic selection*

:p

Thank you.

Argh got same phone and same problem. Scrolling stopped working when I updated to Froyo, but it still works on the built-in ones. Tilting phone doesn't fix it.

It only lets me crop in portrait, not landscape like 2.1 did.

Don't want to have to manually resize them all first, quite liked the crop feature on the phone when it worked.

Hey sqwirral, welcome to AF.

Since I don't have that phone to test things out with, I don't know that I can be much help here. But, here's a few things I can think of to try -

First, I'd try seeing if there's a solution posted, and failing that, posing this question in the phone's specific forum sub-section. The people on here are really knowledgeable and helpful.

You could also try a wallpaper app from the market such as "Wallpaper set and save" or "Wallpaper wizadrii".

You could also see if a home replacement or launcher app solves your problem. Some that come to mind are - PandaHome, AHome, Launcher Pro, ADW launcher and Go launcher.

I hope some of that helps - Good luck!

OK, Toasty - no word from Stu yet, so you're up.

Give these a try out and let me know how it goes.

(BTW - I see here that the edges look a little rough, but when I put it over a wallpaper it looked good. So I hope your results are the same.)

Edit - Here's a simulated screenshot so you and others can see it in use.

Actually, yeah, I'm pretty pleased with the way that whole thing came out. :eek: Glad I could help bring your ideas to fruition. IMHO it's lookin' pretty darn sharp.

yea I bloody love it....it REALLY helps with that row problem I told you bout...I mean I LIKE a minimalist screen BUT I was forced to have it due to stretching the clock because FW doesnt like 5 row format..

I might ask you to do some other andy simulated walls for my calendar and agenda screens too...like I'd do like I did with the clock...use a CLEAR theme for the launcherpro calendar and ask you to do a 'simulated' wallpaper with Andy either eating it or doing something to it again..:D

it would be like a free-for-all :p

Um... yeah! that would be GREAT! ;):p

Yeah we could do that. Here's my thought on that - I think the wallpaper should simulate scrolling on the different screens so that the color bubbles shift in hue like they do on the whole wallpaper. If you agree, to do that I'll need you to give me a screenshot with your widgets, of each additional screen you want done with 1 each of the blank color bubble wallpaper and on this wallpaper template -



Did that make sense? :eek:

OK NightAngel/WaterPik Welcher, here's at least something for you. I lke it and all, but I'm not sure that's really what you wanted. I wasn't really having any luck finding good, hi-res pics to make it the way I thought you'd like. But, I'd guess there's a pretty good chance that I'll revisit this one with a clear head at some point in the future. Of course, I'll let you know if/when I do.

I also ran across this one and I thought it was pretty darn sweet, so I'm posting it too.



Hope you like 'em!

not really sure I got you there lol

I use multi live wallpaper anyway....so I have seperate screens for it...im not too fussed with a 'live' like appearence..I also think it will be ALOT of work for you...BUT I will do some screens of the calendar and agenda screens so you can get a size and placement for the 'Andys' to be doing something to either one...

Right this is the 'Agenda' Screen....I basically have shoved it down a lil and want an 'Andy' on the top edge...either biting it or chewing it or whatever you think would look kinda cool really...

I've show two example screens one with the clear back ground theme I WILL use and one showing the kinda background I would like BUT is there anyway you can maybe make the bottom corner that I have highlighted look like its been chewed off? cos thats where the dock Andy is...and I wanna see him :D

Highlighted corner with 'dark background'
Clear background

-----------------------------------------
And heres the 'Calendar' Screen which is pushed up...so I just want one from the bottom either punching it or biting..again your choice.....I've shown two screens again that show HOW the widget will be and the kinda background I want with it...

I say that background cos I love the green glow round the box edging..

Dark Background
Clear widget

I was just thinking it would be nice to have a slightly different background as you scroll across each of your various screens. But if you'd prefer them all the same that's cool. As far as more work for me - eh, it's not much more at all.

I've got a request for basically this same thing (via PM), then a quicky revision on that last dock (via Picasa) and then I'll get on this.

Eyebeam, you make some sweet stuff.
I have a request. Can you make a wallpaper with Andy wearing an OKC Thunder jersey? Preferrably the blue one? Thanks in advance.

First, thanks!

Sure, I can do that. Any particular player's number you want on it? And for the background, do you want something bright & busy, or more simple such as a texture or gradient?

Get back to me and I'll try to get it done today/tonight.

#35 would be great. And I will let you decide about the background.
Let your artistic side take ahold.
