Why do people call lock screen pictures wallpaper? Wallpaper is like for your desk top or start screen what Windows Phone has is lock screen pictures not wallpapers.
Because it's shorter?
Because the wallpaper functionality in wp7 is limited to the lock screen wallpaper. The pictures hub though have backgrounds, which makes sense because the background is, well positioned at the back, topped with typography interface and tiles, hence background. If it was wallpaper then you should be able to see most of the picture.

I've been bugged by this for a long time now. I would like to completely disable weather animation on the Home tab, but while keeping the original wallpaper, which is just plain black.
This is not possible as you have to choose between weather and animated wallpaper...even though animated wallpaper can be a static one. You then can choose a static wallpaper from your phone or memory card. Problem is, never can you choose the original wallpaper...you always have to choose a different wallpaper.
And when choosing f.i. an all black wallpaper, it will never come out on the Home tab as nice as the original black wallpaper...it's always grainy. This is very annoying, as the weather animation is useless imo and takes far too long to end....during which everything is slowed down considerably.
I'm still hoping to find a solution to this, but so far nothing....anyone?
Does anyone know of an advanced wallpaper app, or possibly a mod for the gallery available? I'm looking for something that maybe when cropping an image as a wallpaper adds lines for the center home screen in the crop box, and/or possibly can create a wallpaper that only takes up the Center home screen. I sometimes use the non scrolling wallpaper option in Launcher pro, so a narrower image would also suffice.
Hello, is it possible to turn of wallpaper shifting? I mean I want to have a single wallpaper on all screens that is not shifted between them, like in Android 2.3 on my Galaxy TAB, I can choose wallpaper format, wide or thin, portrait, that stays the same on all screens and only the desktops move...
Honeycomb has 5 screens, and wallpaper moves slightly through screens left or right. How can I use a wallpaper in the background that stays frozen and only desktops move?
Multipicture Live Wallpaper has a wallpaper for each screen, I want only one wallpaper, with moving desktops.
I have an Acer A500
Im not a fan of shifting wallpaper either. This app called MultiPicture Live Wallpaper seemed to fix that for me.
How can i set my homescreen wallpaper the same res (size) as my lock screen?
what i mean is, if i set wallpaper as lock screen the whole picture shows, if i set the same pic as homescreen wallpaper its cropped or zoomed in with part of the picture missing.
is there anyway i can have it so both look like the lock scren?
thanks

Hi! I have a Z3 with Muzei as a live wallpaper which updates images every day. I really like to have the current wallpapers in the lockscreen as well but I haven't found any option like that. Is there any way to deactivate the lockscreen so only the wallpaper could be seen or maybe replicate the same wallpaper configuration to the lockscreen?
Thank you!

You can try the Facebook Home app. There is an option to use the same wallpaper as the one used in the home-screen
same here
Hi, I was searching the whole Web for the same thing.
I think with Muzei we will not be able to sync our start screen with our lock screen with Muzei, since that is a Live Wallpaper and those are not supported on lock screen.
I want to get the current BIng picture of the day on my screens -- automaticaly. Well, I think I have to live without this....
