I know the height and width must be 640x480, when I change to a larger wallpaper like 1600x1200 using Gimp it doesn't size it correctly. Is there a manipulation that I can use to make the size turn out to be 640x480, or can I just use 640xwhatever?

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
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.
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
For example, the aspect ratio of the Droid Incredible screen is 3:5. Various launchers allow you to set it so that the picture doesn't scroll when you move between desktops. If that's the case, a wide aspect ratio isn't needed for the wallpaper.
Is there a launcher that allows you to disable wallpaper scrolling and use a wallpaper that is the same aspect ratio as the phone's screen?
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...

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
