How do I use my own Panoramic background with MaxManila (instead of the stock one) - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I installed MaxManilla 2.5 and I selected the "P" on the wallpaper option, now I have the panoramic wallpaper that came with MaxManila... but I wanted to know how I can change it to any panoramic wallpaper...
thanks in advance

Problem with wallpaper too light

So I'm having trouble with my today wallpaper and the TF3D background wallpaper. I'm using the first image as the jpg (480x640) as the wallpaper. It looks fine. The second and third pictures are my today screen and home touchflo screens. You should be able to tell that the wallpaper is faded now, but on my SecondToday screen the wallpaper looks fine. Is there something I can do to correct this problem? I've searched the forums and all throughout my device, but I can't find a way to correct the problem.
I'm using Energy ROM 2 with Showaco's backgroup wallpaper for all tabs. Is there a way I can bypass the setting of the wallpaper and just copy the image as another name? Where is the wallpaper stored?
If you set your wallpaper in your Today settings it automatically gives it like 40% transparency. No way I have found to change this. However, if you go to Manila settings and change it there, it should have no transparency.
If that doesn't work, try setting your manila wallpaper with this program.
Also for the actual today screen, try this program if you like it to change occassionally.
Thanks Bruce for the suggestions. The Diamond background changer didn't work either. I really don't care about the Today screen being faded, but the manila wallpaper being faded is really annoying.
Anyone else have a suggestion?
Sorry man, I don't have these issues at all.
My backgrounds all look fine.
Go to Pictures and Video (the default picture viewer), and select your picture. Then, select "Use this as home screen / background".

I found a solution. I uninstalled Showaco's All tabs background and reinstalled it and it fixed the problem. I don't know what caused it to begin with, but at least now its' fixed.

Wallpaper for both landscape & portrait Sense 2.5 ?

Hi all,
I don't find a way to install a wallpaper which will work for both portrait AND landscape Sense 2.5 (from new 2.02 Leo package) :
I've try to use a "normal" wallpaper (480x800) but in landscape, there's a dark bar in the right (because the screen switch on 800x480).
I've try to use a 800x800 wallpaper (to make it able with 480x800 AND 800x480), but doesn't work either. A dark bar still in the right when landscape is activated.
Finally, I've try to install some *.cab(s) you can find in this forum, which are supposed to install both portrait and landscape wallpaper in Manilla. It didn't worked...
I can add a wallpaper when landscape (or portrait) mode is activated (Menu > home wallpaper > etc.) but it change allways the wallpaper for both mode. In fact,, the wallpaper is allways the same in landscape and in portrait.
So anybody has a good idea (or found a way to make it working) ?
I'm interested too for this!

hd wallpaper only in the home...is possible???

sorry guys!!!
is it possibile to have a full screen wallpaper (using HQ wallpaper patch) only in the home!!!
i have installed this cab and my home is very beautiful but now i don't read a sms and menus on colored background.
thanks guys
wich rom are you using, and what is your hometab?
Maxmanila, co0kie's hometab, another?
my rom is 1.66.408.1
my manila is 2.5.1921...
i use only hq wallpaper patch on my device and i edit my wallpaper in my computer with hdwall 0.28..
thank you for your help!!!
For only the stock rom with HD patch I'm not sure. At the moment I'm using Maxmanila hometab and then you can select to use a different homescreen background then rest of the menu. I'll try to look it up for you, but you may consider using the Maxmanila mod. Because I know for sure you can use it then.
HDWall has an option called "HTC Sense v2.5 - Home Tab - No Compression".

If you are talking about the patch that makes the upper taskbar and the lower soft button bar part of the wallpaper so it is kind of full screen on Sense and Lock/Start menu, it is a system wide patch so it means it will appear on every screen.
Uninstall the patch and select the wallpaper in Manila settings. Then it will be displayed only on the hometab.... unfortunately you won't have the wallpaper in the taksbar and bottombar. You could recreate those two (top and bottom) images and set them in registry, but then they appear everywhere again.
For so far as I know these are the only options.

Home screen wallpaper

I am decorating my HD2 with gothic style wallpaper. I applied the same wallpaper onto the lock screen and home screen, the one on lock screen display perfectly with high resolution and detail, very sharp and bright. However the same wallpaper displayed on home screen is very poor in quality, blur, flat and not in the correct scale.
Is there any specific size i need to crop the wallpaper to inorder to have it display correctly on the home screen? Thanks

480 x 800
Search for HDWall, also apply HQ Wallpaper Patch for your Manila version.

Sorry, i am not sure about what jive means but when you create a wallpaper with HDWall (it is a cab) is for all backgrounds / tabs of Sense.

Jive = work.
is that means simply cropping or creating a 800 x 480 px picture on photoshop will not display correctly when I set it as Home screen wallpaper on HD2? I change the wallpaper by going:
Menu > Home Wallpaper > Weather Wallpaper > (my wallpaper file)
Does it make a different if I had Cookies Home tab and editor installed? I am running a stock rom. Or it is a must to create the wallpaper with the HDWallS and install the HQ Wallpaper Patch for your Manila inorder to have it display correctly?
Thanks~
It doesn't matter the software you use to create a wallpaper, it just has to be 400x800 to fit the whole screen. After that you create a cab by using HDWall and it will make every tab with the same background, HDWall also makes the wallpaper from the top to the bottom (no curtains), remember, install HQWallpaperPatch (the right one for your manila version) to get high quality background in you screen.
Of course, when you have a .jpg or .png file you just copy it to My Documents/My Wallpapers (i don't know if that is the right name in English) and then from your Today screen you can go to Configuration -> Personalize -> LockScreen background and change to whatever you want.

Doesn't matter, when creating a cab with HDWall you don't need BG4All anymore, no need to uninstall.
Rgds,
thanks! I now have installed the patch and created the cab with HDWall. Home screen displayed the wallpaper perfectly now, though seems to be a bit complicate method to have it displayed correctly. Think I need to spend some time getting know HDWall to use it properly.
Is that means I will have to create the cab on a computer each time when I want to change the wallpaper and no alternative method to change it directly like other phones ususally do? Do I have to unstall the current cab before installing the new one?
thanks for your clear explaination. cheers!

No, you do not have to uninstall first, when installing another one your device will uninstall the previous one at first so no worries.
You can also try Bwizard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681341
Another possibilty is changing background wallpaper directly by going to Configuration -> Personalize -> Today Home Screen Background but this way it will only change your Today screen, when you want the same wallpaper in every tab you will have to install BG4All (search for it) and probably a couple of small applications to remove top and bottom curtains.
It's up to you, hope it all will help you.

HTC Pure Wallpaper?

Hey guys, im wondering if HTC pure can have picture set as wallpaper? instead of the default one showing AT&T icon at the background...I tried to set a picture as wallpaper but no luck..
Are you talking about the background image in touchflo (tabs)? If so, I recommend trying HDWalls which works perfectly on my manila 2.1 and is very easy to use as well.

Thanks for that pal, Thanks
No problem! Hope it works like you want it to.
