Whats the best screen resolution to set a pic as a wallpaper? My first wallpaper was 533x800 in pixels that I uploaded and set as my wallpaper and it came out perfect. It was stretched to fit the entire screen. Anyway I tried to change my wallpaper which is now smaller and when I click on the start menu its got it all in tiles so I have heaps and heaps of them it looks bad. What is the ideal size to crop it too so that it "stretches" to fit the entire screen?
The screen is VGA, so the best resolution would be 640*480 (native VGA). Obvisously if the same images are going to be used elsewhere too then a higher or lower res might be in order (to prevent them looking terrible on the other device).
Give 640x640 a shot, that way you have a good wallp even when you go to landscape.

Hello i was wondering which is the optimal size for photos and films to fill/fit the screen.I guess you will say its 800x480 but if its so please tell me the best software to resize them.Thanks a lot.
P.S I searched around but for pics i couldnt find a resizer software with the desirable output size i am sure you know better.
Yes, the best size is 480 X 800 for photos (Portrait) and 800x480 for videos (landscape)
For resizing you can find MANY MANY apps floting around. But keep in mind that if the original photo doesn't have the right proportion and you resize it to 480X800 you'll get some distortion. The best way to achieve a good result is to resize you picture so that one of its sizes fits your phone, and the other size is bigger. Then, you simply CROP the picture to 480X800
Same rule applies for videos too...
Finally keep in mind that if you try to ENLARGE a photo, the more you enlarge it, the more distortion you'll have on the final image... Generally speaking avoid to resize anything for more than 150% as the final result will be distorted.
When you want to play video you can use the Video Encoding GUI. Works for me on the Blackstone
Is it possible to modify the screen resolution? If so how? The reason for this is I downloaded some wallpapers 1024x1024 but whenever I use it as my wallpaper... Gallery places a "box" over a portion of the image (I assume that is the homescreen resolution) of course the image then is a lot larger (zoomed).
I don't think you can
as the title, did anyone know exactly what is the correct resolution size of wallpaper for note 10.1 in portrait mode?
Wouldn't it be 800x1200?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
800x1200 is landscape mode, the portrait mode may need a higher resolution size since if use the 800x1200 will not fully cover the screen as there is a 2 black bars up and bottom.

the screen resolution is 1280x800, but you need wallpapers with 1280x1280 px if you use auto rotation.
You can easily use ipad 3 wallpapers since the resolution is bigger, or widescreen wallpapers with higher resolutions than FullHD, like 2560x1440 (cropped to 1440x1440)
To make my own wallpapers I go with 3 times the screen resolution and then set the wallpaper using Gallery and crop the image to a size that works. I use 3 times the size so that Gallery will be able to use what I want.
Basically crop the picture to an exact square to use auto rotation.
Just beware that you dont cut 'her' head off in the pic
Hey,
I copy three resolutions of an image to my surface: 6099x4066, 1152x768 and 1366x911
The full resolution picture is not as sharp as the other two pictures. Why? Also if I zoom in and zoom out in the full resolution picture, the image looks horrible. I need to go to the overview and then click on the picture again to the it normal (but not so sharp). Whats the problem?
I want to convert my photos to a tablet resolution but 768px is to small for the future and the full resolutions makes problems now.
Best regards,

Hi, I dont have one and was just trolling on this section of the Forum as I was thinking of buying one, but it might be due to the picture having to resize and optimize to fit the screen? It might be but its just a guess.
Ok, but the other versions must also be resized and ony the really big version has this problem.
It could be because the Big one has to either decompress or compress to fit, can remember which. >.<
What's the ideal wallpaper resolution for the Nexus 5. By ideal, I mean a resolution that maps pixel for pixel to the screen pixels. I have seen a couple of sources that suggest matching the physical screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 but that cannot be correct. For both stock and Nova launchers, the image scrolls side to side as I move from one screen to the next. Therefore it must be something like 1920x1080+n where 'n' is the number of pixels that the wallpaper moves when moving from screen to screen times the number of screens-1.
Or does the home screen vary the distance scrolled sideways according to the width available for a given wallpaper and the number of screens?.
Thanks!

1920x1920 would mean that your phone would be full screen, pixel by pixel in both landscape and portrait but it would not scroll. I cant speak for all launchers but with Nova, anything over 1080 width (in portrait) will be divided by how many screens in that direction for scrolling.
So for example, if I have a really wide picture, but only 3 screens, the scrolling effect of the wallpaper will be a large difference. The more screens I add, the smaller that difference will become.
For me, I want a big choice of wallpapers without editing so, I go for as close a match to the 1920 height that I can get without going under.. so on interfacelift I go by 16:9, 3840x2160 - sure I know I'm 140 over on the height... If I could be bothered, I'd bulk trim them
