If you haven't seen the Microbes Live Wallpaper from the Nexus S dump, go see it now:

Anyways, I find this wallpaper amazing... But it runs a little sluggish.
Is there a way someone could edit it to include, say, half as many microbes or to take out the background?
Yeah I love the background too, but it is sluggish.
Anybody?

I had Posted this in our captivate forum with no success and I was hoping with a little more eyes on it that it might happen. This is what I wrote...
Okay so I was just looking at wallpapers on devianart because as much as I love my live wallpapers, sometimes I just want something easy on the eyes. So my question is how hard would it be to have a standard wallpaper on your homescreen but also be able to place a picture frame widget with a live wallpaper running inside it? Sounds pretty awesome in my head to be able to run a live wallpaper in a pic frame widget while having a regular old pic as your wallpaper.(black wall with a pic widget with the seed of life running inside) Anyways didnt know if this was possible for a dev to make adjustments to that widget for this to be allowed. Thanks for looking

Snowfall Full Live Wallpaper
Reacts to time of day with different background views, you can control the snow and the lights on the trees.
Works well in landscape. Very realistic.
I have been using Light Grid Pro the most. Good, frequent updates.
Does anyone notice fairly noticeable lag when you use Live Wallpaper? Is it just standard drag on the CPU?
I get zero lag and I'm on a stock UK ROM.
the only time I face lag when using live walls is when I open up the apps drawer !! it looks laggy !!
anyone know of a similar one to the grass wallpaper that changes though out the day, a moon orbit one would be nice in the cartoony style
Beautiful Widgets

Beautiful Widgets in the Market has a great wallpaper that shows weather, and changes throughout the day. It also lets you select a custom background with the paid version.
Anyone else's live wallpaper pause or freeze when scrolling or just in general?
The Beam wallpaper doesn't even animate and the weather wallpaper just stops animation. The water wallpaper pauses when scrolling through home screens. It's rather annoying, especially since I love having an animated wallpaper. I am new to HTC Sense so please bare with me on my knowledge.
try another launcher and see if it has the same problem
Tried on Nova Launcher, same problem.
Wow, all these threads just kind of stop with no one having a resolution.
I guess it's not everyone who is having this problem, but if a fix has popped up since the last post from April, could someone chime in, thanks.
Howdy folks,
I'm looking for a live wallpaper that displays the time in words. I see apps that will allow it, but no live wallpapers. There are live wallpapers that have clocks, but none are verbose. Most are just widgets.
I'm looking for something like this.
Ideally I'd like to be able to use my wallpaper image, or select from others.
Did I miss one in the Play Store or in this forum? That doesn't suck?
Thanks!
So I've not had a Samsung device since the S5, is it normal that I can't have a live wallpaper from an app (Let's say liveloop) on the lockscreen and a static wallpaper as the homescreen, as far as I've tried when I set a live wallpaper and then set a static one for the home screen the lock screen wallpaper changes to the default one
Any way to get past this?
Well, they are not called live wallpapers anymore. Just called video wallpapers. I use one of the ones that come with the phone and have a static picture on my home screen. Works just fine. I have tried other video wallpapers, but could not find one I liked any better then the one it came with. You can use the theming to get wallpapers, but it will usually change a lot of other things you may not want changed. I did use theming to be able to grab a wallpaper I wanted. Revert to default and then change to the wallpaper I wanted. Good luck.

My only problem is I don't want to use a video wallpaper, if I want to use a live wallpaper from an app like Walloop I can't have it just on my lockscreen, it has to be both
Not familiar with that app, but I am an old fart that really does not do too much messing with my setup any more. Sorry. Good luck.
Yes the phone supports Live wallpapers on the lockscreen. In wallpapers and style click on my wallpapers then on the 3 dots.
How to
Install the live wallpaper app, then go to my wallpapers the three dot menu and select live wallpapers and will open where you can select the wallpapers you have installed, you can apply as lock screen and homescreen or homescreen only.
