I use wallpaper Casa, and sometimes HD wallpapers to set wallpapers on my cappy,but those walls seem really washed out and grainy on the transformer. Ne1 know of any honeycomb compatible wall paper app yet?

I noticed that the stock wallpaper is VERY CRISP...and most of my efforts and finding wallpaper that looks as good has been unsuccessful.
Also guys other than the extra walls pack posted earlier,I never found anything else related to tf walls

You should use the suggested above or 2560 x 1600. It works well. try picturecasa app, it's not that bad but the website version has more links.

I've been using 2560 images and none are as crisp as the stock "tree" wallpaper...
AFAIK, Honeycomb uses 1920x1280 images. The extra width is so it has enough room to shift the image when you change screens, and the height so that there's room to zoom the image out when you open the app folder, or widget srceen or whatever.
even when i use the suggested wallpaper dimensions none of the wallpapers ever look as good on the homescreen as they do on the browser... which makes no sense.
get the "wallpaper wizzardi" app. Its a bit buggy but it will take ANY image size, res, etc and make it look amazing on the TF.
Sometimes it gets black bars on the screen but all you do is switch it to landscape/horizontal and it will go back. Its really nice. Still buggy but nice.
i use wallpaper set and save with very large images that i find at wallbase.cc (at least 2560 x 1600) and i've got pretty crisp background images.
I use Flikie Wallpaper app, it auto sizes them for me and you get to pick from a bunch online, its worth it, great app
Guys check out this new app. Tablet wallpapers. Seems 2 b specifically for honeycomb.

I'm trying to find the perfect dimensions to use so that Honeycomb's crop box will fill the entire picture, and none of the suggested sizes have worked. Interesting...

Wondering what resolution wallpaper should work best on Galaxy Tab? the native display resolution is 1024x600. If one scrolls 5 to 7 screens left or right a 1280x1024 wallpaper should work fine. Anyone toyed with resolution on wallpapers?
Rule of thumb with Android wallpapers is to use 2X the horizontal resolution and 1X the vertical resolution for the best results in portrait mode. In the case of the Tab that would be 1200x1024.

The wallpapers that come with the Tab feature 1200 (width) x 1024 (height) resolution.
what is the best resolution in landscape where I can see the ENTIRE photo. I've been fooling with it for months and can't seem to get it right.

Do a search on gtabwallpaper this will help you to set the wallpaper correctly and where you can see the entire photo
I found a Better way.. i just use multipicturelive wallpaper
lets all fly with ICARUS on my tab
Use 1920 x 1200 - taken from default_wallpaper.jpg out of framwork-res. After trying a few different things including wallpaper wizardrii and wallpaper slideshow i am now using this rez. No probs at all, just the right size.
go to market. find the app called "wallpaper maker". make sure your rez is 1024x600. load your wallpaper in wallpaper maker and move it to the top of the square. it will make it fit landscape.perfectly. Been using it for a while now. No issues.

1024 x 600 Works best on Samsung Galx Tab 2.3.3

Look for an app called gTabWallpaper on the market, or other places. Its free, and it has worked best for me. Even if your desired wallpaper is not an exact fit, it seems to find the best way to apply it with minimal distortion.

Edit: Rewrite
I'll be re uploading a whole new wallpaper pack with the correct resolutions tomorrow. For now here's what you can do.
Download HD Wallpaper Pack 2
Unzip to your download folder,
Go to market and download "Wallpaper Wizardrii"
Install and reboot
When it comes back up all of the wallpapers should now be visible in the gallery. Choose the picture you want and click on the share button in the top right. Wallpaper Wizardrii should now be a choice. Select it.
From there just click on set and set it to scrolling and it'll adjust the images in the wallpaper pack above accordingly.

Used the method you suggested and it worked. I kinda have a question, for a split second when I wake my KF, the default wallpapers that are built into the device show up before the ones I've saved for the DRAPP application. Is there a way that I can completely shut off the default ones?

Hey I'd try deviantart for some wallpapers, I found quite a few good ones. The ones I downloaded came with a variety of size options ranging from phone to tablet. Hope that helped

Ok, I'm sure that it's not only me having this issue, but
I'm trying to install the CleanROM 3.0 Wallpaper and any time that I do, it crops it and turns all pixelated. I've noticed this with any wallpaper I try to set that's not a system wallpaper.. is there any way to fix this??
I'm currently Running CleanROM DE 3.1
but i've noticed this on pretty much every ROM i've ran
here is the wallpaper
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27624455&postcount=24
I've actually spent yesterday figuring out how to do this in a super roundabout way.
I put the wallpapers I want into CleanROM 3.0 SE ROM itself. I edited the ROM zip file with 7-zip, inserted the background I wanted in the correct location and performed a full data wipe. Then I flashed it to the phone.
And walla, it works... I now have the 2 wallpapers I want in full resolution.
I'm sure there is an app that can put a full resolution wallpaper in your phone for you. I just never looked... lol
We had a similar problem with the HP Touchpad and a guy made an app on the play store to remedy it (here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDEsImNvbS5raGFubmluZy50cHdwYXBwbGllciJd)
Unfortunately it only works with the Touchpad's resolution, though if someone made an app to support our resolution then it would work fine.
Just resize it when you select the wallpaper. Touch the opposing corners on the crop box and drag to make it bigger.

I remember back when I first got my inspire and was using the sense launcher, i believe I used an app called wallpaper wizardii or something like that. Might be worth giving a shot.

I've been using Zedge to set my wallpaper. When I set it through the app, it doesn't seem to lose quality, but if I try setting it through Sense from the downloaded picture, it does lose some quality.
Look up "dodol wallpaper" in the playstore. I set some pretty damn high quality photos as my wallpaper. Always amazes people!
I use an app call wallpaper set and save. It will keep the resolution of the image you are setting as the wallpaper.
Well i am trying to use a picture as wallpaper but only let me use part of the picture as wallpaper (crop)
Any one knows how to use a full picture!?

The dimensions of the image have to be 1920x1408, and even then it'll get cropped vertically a little bit.

It's actually 1920x1280 in ICS.
What I do is just get a 1280x800 wallpaper and increase the canvas size to 1920*1280 with Photoshop and disable wallpaper scrolling & rotation in my launcher. That way nothing gets cropped at all.
Nope. It's 1920x1408. Trust me. I searched long and hard. And if you find a wallpaper site with Android tablet wallpapers for 1280x800 screens, its real dimensions are 1920x1408.
Seriously, get a wallpaper in 1920x1408, and you'll see that you'll crop it a lot less.
Ok thanks guys

hm really? I thought since when you go to the wallpaper crop in ICS theres no bars above and below the portrait view that it would be 1280. Guess I'll give it a shot.

Don't forget that the wallpaper has to scroll in both landscape and portrait mode. It requires a lot of extra wallpaper real estate.
