Wallpapers question - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys just wondering if there was a way to get bigger wallpaper selection/crop box on my eee pad.
The tiny box you can use is really annoying as i want a photo as my wallpaper but the box wont let me get the whole photo only a tiny section and its really annoying me. Even "tablet wallpapers" are really zoomed in and you cant see ****.
Thanks in advance

You could use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper where you can set a static wallpaper which wont get resized. Some guys here reported over the forum that it works great but I found it to make my screen transitions when using ADW to be a little stuttering after starting to use it

u can use Wallpaper Wizardii , available in the market .
Very nice free app u can set your wallpaper in many different ways and say good buy to the annoying honeycomb wallpaper crop .
Wallpaper alignment is an issue with the stock launcher, not wallpaper apps, which doesn't auto crop third party wallpapers. I am using LauncherPro and the problem is solved! Not to mention all the other cool features of LauncherPro. I only need two home screens. I can do that with this app. Also can select how many rows/columns of icons I want. Also can resize widgets.

Use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper:

Does the cropping for you, and allows you to set specific backgrounds for each screen, including the lock screen.

Post your Home Screens

Ok I do not yet have mine yet, but after reading the Prime thread and the TF300 one we should do the same, plus it would be a great to see what you have all done
This will be a nice thread. Will post my screen later. Have a hard time deciding how to arrange my home screen. Using Apex launcher. Crashes quite often so that will be prio one to decide launcher to use.
Three of the four I'm using. The other one is with some cloud apps and my calendar agenda widget (Wizz)

Apps! Apps everywhere! lol. I need some big widgets to throw on my home screens...
My 2 cents, smudged because of some sensitive text/data...
Ordered like on the tablet, 3rd one is home screen. Apex launcher, apps, some standard widgets + minimalistic text for titles.

It's the biggest weather widget (manually resized to be a bit smaller actually) from HD Widgets + Dual Battery Widget.
I think that transparent agenda widget from Wizz is pretty cool too.
And battery state on the bottom is from GSam battery widget.
You can also see my apps thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764480
My screens,
the middle/main one.
and the right one
and a screenshot were you can admire my wallpaper.
I actually think that choosing the wallpaper in ICS is totally rubbish.
Why doesn't it downscale the picture if it's too big?
Or why the hell doesn't it fit? It's just 1920x1080.
Wouldn't that be the perfect size for the Infinity?
The wallpaper would actually look like this
+1 on being annoyed by having to crop the wallpaper picture
It works a bit better with Nova Launcher, but then you have to live with a cut wallpaper in portrait mode...
Wallpaper wizardrii is what you need to scale the wallpaper to whatever you want.
I've been to mycolorscreen, which features mostly portrait and probably phone themes. Is there any site that's more tablet oriented (with apologies, my googlefu is weak today)? I kind of want to do an anchored list on the left of each screen, and I think I recall the best of those usually add some elements to the wallpaper itself to highlight the selected anchor, so you use maybe minimal text for the icon to the anchors, but then set them inside shaded portions you've crafted into your wallpaper. I kind of think I know what I want to do, but I'd love to have some good examples to build from.

This works well and fine, but still not a solution to portrait mode wallpaper cut-off.
I use Apex launcher and just because of this wallpaper problem never use homescreens in portrait.
If anyone knows of solution....please let us know.
Thx
Here's mine.

Edit: my screen shot.
only if you switch it on in the system settings first
I use Nova prime and if you go into Nova settings, desktop, height margin and select none or small it resizes portrait screen.
Still very much a work in progress but it's starting to get showable.

I prefer MultiPicture Live Wallpaper

[Q] Wallpaper Cropping

I can't seem to find a way to set a custom image as the wallpaper without having to crop it to the point that the resolution is incredibly low and it looks terrible. I don't want to make it scrollable, I want a simple 1920x1080 image set as my background just like the default Asus ones. I have seen some users mention PicSpeed HD wallpapers but this is not a viable solution because if the image you want is not in their galleries it won't work. Also I've downloaded the Wallbase app and setting a picture as the wallpaper results in the same cropping as trying to do it manually.
Anyone know how to fix this?
You can install MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. It's what I use and it's excellent. I'd also recommend messing around with the settings in it.

Nice
Reading this thread and dowloading this app may be what prevents me from returning my TF700. Thanks for the tips!

Wallpapers get zoomed in, why?

I have been using zedge to get my wallpapers for some time, every now and then I find a really nice wallpaper and when I install it it gets zoomed in as if it's the resolution is to big and the wallpaper gets cut off. Is there any way to make the wallpaper fit entirely on the screen? I have tried to resize the wallpaper with no luck, I am also using nova launcher even though that probably doesn't make a difference.

Supposedly, Wallpapyrus will keep the resolution of your images intact.
Install the app called 'Wallpaper Setter' to solve the issue.
I tried both, and they do keep the resolution intact without croping for the home screen wallpaper but not the lock screen.

This (Wallpapyrus) worked for me on my freshly-upgraded ICS Galaxy S2 LTE. Thanks, chaps!
