Has anyone seen the problem with pixelated pictures on the 'people' tab in the TouchFlo Interface? The smallest thumbnails look clear, but no matter the size of the source picture the larger preview of the persons picture always looks bad....
Solutions?

I guess this normally isnt such an issue but Ive been using the slide2unlock program which is pretty neat. Anyways it can do full screen caller id pictures which is great. However, it ends up just zooming in on my picture and looks like crap. The pic I used is a 2mp picture so its gotta be fairly large (well larger than the screen thats for sure)... Anyways anyway in general to get higher quality images out of WM6? And if anyone know in relation to Slide2Unlock as well that would be great
Thanks
anyone know?
do u have the link to this program?
I guess to save space the phone saves the contact picture with certain compression and size. Slide2Unlock just use the contact picture that you have assigned to that contact and stretches it because it's too small.
I belive you have no option to use a bigger image, it's a OS "feature" to save space/memory and improve speed.
But I may be extremely wrong.
It's not what is asked, but I suggest you to use Photo Contact Pro
with the caller id actived... in the S2U the image in fullscreen mode.... its to bad like a gaussing blur image... i re-size for 150x159 pixels... and the problem is the same...
how to have a highehr quality images in the caller id..... thanx
I posted on this subject in another thread before:

I hope there are useful info in there.
I've been messing with Wizard TNT5.0 TouchFlo and I realized that my contact pictures in the Cube were looking a bit... blocky. Except for the ones that I took pictures of using the "Contact Picture" mode in camera. Obviously that's the resolution I should be using, right?
Wrong.
I tried converting these pictures (the ones that seem blocky) to the same resolution as pictures taken under "contact picture", which is 320x240 96dpi. When I did just that, I got the same results.
This pixilish look also looks the same in Slide2Unlock's fullscreen Caller ID. It doesn't look like that with pictures taken with "contact picture".
Now my question is...
Is there some other resolution I should be looking at? Is there something I'm missing?
Or maybe there's a program that can help me convert these pixilish pictures to the right resolution for the cube and Slide2Unlock.
Thanks guys. As a digital imager myself this is irritating me.
I think i found the answer in the touch form: it is from a guy called mangakun

And it works ok but i found that when you resize them 260h_240w they are even better and more on scale
for slide2unlock i don't have the answer because i am not using it anymore.
there is a mode mode of Camera application that is capturing pictures in proper aspect ratio and size.

260x240 seems a bit odd. I'll check it out. So far 320x240 really isn't working out for me though, I don't know why...
Hi there
I have added photo for contact but the resolution is v bad! please advise what actual size should I add?
Yes i also would like to know this.What resolution should the pictures be for better appearence??
you have to add the pictures from the people tab for better res
The picture quality in the TF3D "Persons"-Tab ist very low. The pictures i put on the phone for this contacs are in a very good resulution. How is it posible to change this quality?
Hope the other people had the same question an the last post is not realy an answer?!?!?
thx
wm3k
This has been answered before, I know because it helped me out no end.
1. Add the contact to the favourites tab in TF3D
2. Click the Menu softkey (right softkey) and choose the Change Picture option
3. Simply select the same picture again.
It will now be crystal clear (provided you are using clear pictures to start with)

Thanks mate! It works now.
I just re-imported the favorites pictures through the TF3D interface, and all of the pictures were rescaled to 256 pixels high.
The pictures still have 24 bit color depth.
the best if you prepare pictures 256x256 pixels, 28 pixels/inch resolution, and save them as 24bit RGB .png files. Otherwise it uses internal mechanism to re-scale them, which affects picture quality.
The images that end up on a contact in Outlook using this method thru TF3D are much better quality/resolution than you can attach by using Outlook directly.
Is there a way to attach high quality images like this by using Outlook or some other tool on a PC rather than the phone? i.e. how could I get high quality images like this on my contacts if I didn't have this phone?
Thanks for the answer. Works great!
Is there any descent picture viewer similar to the iphone that can do all of the following
Lists photo albumns
When you select an album you get a thumbnail grid of photos
When you select a thumbnail you get a full screen picture
When you slide a picture to the left the next picture appears
When you slide a picture to the right the previous picture appears

look for S2V,its just like the iphone. one little tip 4 ya, next time try using the search button. this program has been around for a while and been talked about a bunch of times.usually when questions like this get asked noone answers cause it is so simple and all you gotta do is search.
edit: the stock album from htc is pretty good imo, its just like S2V.

HTC Album 3.2 does all that and it's fast as heck.
It's too big to attach but here's a link:

Resco Photo Manager is the beast of photo editing/viewing/management - does everything & is super fast - free trial but it does cost after that ...
when combined with the resco file explorer you get thumbnails everywhere so you don't even need to fire up the photo app

Hi,
I think most of them in, Xnview Pocket, you may even crop/resize/apply some effects / batch renaming and even acces iptc/exif info !
Best it's free and working under wm6.5
regards
yeah i really like XnView
Post em up!
Walls sized 960x800.... yeah i know the EVO resolution, but this is the correct size...same as the incredible
Here is a collection that i stole from another site... i take no credit...i just .rar'ed em up.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WT79M4Z2
40ish nice walls.
Why 960x800?
"The homescreen is 800 pixels in length and 480 pixels wide. The thing is, as you swipe between the 6 other panels, the wallpaper shifts a tad bit so you need to compensate for that. 960 pixels wide should be what all 7 panels are from end to end, not just the home panel."

I think this will make a good wallpaper. It is a Solargram I made this winter/spring with a pinhole camera.
Hope you like it!
edit: I'm not sure what happened, it got scaled down to 959x799 somewhere. I'll try and fix it. (uh, yeah, lets try this again... disregard my ineptitude.)
Maybe I am doing something incorrectly, but when i attempt to take my image and select them as a wallpaper, it prompts me to crop the image and then its all stretched out and ugly on the home screen. can someone provide me with some help on this...thanks

When it prompted me to crop I just made the crop rectangle the size of the entire image. Then it just didn't crop anything off and looked fine.
Mine will only me to expand the box to a bit less then half the picture...so far ive tried playing with different picture sizes, but no joy. someone help, i feel like a window licker
Here are some i have
coming from the hero
I resized this picture i want as my wallpaper and even though I tried both sizes whenever I try to set it as wall paper it does a super enlarged zoomed in view as the wallpaper.
there's an app that will stretch the picture to go across all of the screens and use the full image.
does anyone know what this app is called?
I used to have it on my touch pro 2 with android.

What do you mean? Remember the wallpapers stretch over all 7 screens of Sense. So you won't see the whole image on your screen at once.
