Has anyone discovered worthy backgrounds (like the defaults in ICS), or if a wallpaper rotator is compatible with ICS?

A little off topic but Ive been looking for an app that can set different wallpapers for portrail & landscape mode. But the only one I could find was Dual wallpaper which is a paid app on the market with bad feedback , anyone got anything else?
Any app out there that rotates live wallpapers?

I'm running ADWLauncher EX on my rooted stock. When I unlock it, it uses the background from the lock screen for that session. I think it's pretty cool, since I like the lock screen picks that come with the kindle.

use multipicture live wallpaper, available on the market, sets your wallpaper perfectly every time, no cropping needed

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

In Cyanogenmod, what resolution do you need for the wallpaper to fit the maximum border sizes?

Well, the Skyrocket has a screen resolution of 480 x 800, so an image with those dimensions should fill up your screen background perfectly. Is this what you were asking?
Somewhat. Whenever I try and use a wallpaper it shows the landscape and portrait view borders and I can never get it to go over that. Is there a way to get around that or am I stuck with it?

In a program like MS Paint you can make a large image (any color, black would probly be best), then paste the image you want as your wallpaper in the center.
Maybe make the new image that is 1440x2400 and just paste the wallpaper dead center. Thats what I did for the tablet I used to have an it worked pretty well.
If you have an OS other than windows I'd use Gimp.
Thanks! Never thought of that. Wish there was a much lazier way lol.

There's an app called Wallpaper Wizardrii that can do what you are looking for. It has tons of scaling options.

I use Zedge. Kind of like the overall look of the app, and it also provides for some good ringtones.
Can you just download regular HD desktop wallpaper.
Copy them over to the tablet (put in the directory where wallpapers are stored) and use them that way?

I use PicSpeed Wallpapers on both tablet and phone.
I think the exact size for a full-res wallpaper on a tablet with 1280x800 resolution is 1920x1408, so use that res in your search criteria. The wallpapers have to be bigger than the screen resolution so they can scroll, and work in portrait mode.
+1 for Zedge. I use it on my phone and tablet. I get quite a few from the internet too. A search for HD wallpapers usually produces a few good wallpapaers when you are specific on what you want.

Best wallpaper site on the web: wallbase.cc/search
those apps are all useless (wallbase has one too by the way)
p.s. use "image 2 wallpaper" app on Google play to set the wallpapers as background...the default imageviewer "galery" is a horrible app.
I like http://digitalblasphemy.com/
Take a look at http://digitalblasphemy.com/ I have thought seriously about a subscription to have full access to the art there.

Hello guys! There is now a Ubuntu Theme(NOT ROM) which is made by Armando Ferreira. Thanks to him we will be able to make our phone look like an Ubuntu Phone. When Ubuntu is released for Phones only the Nexus will be able to get it but hopefully soon our phone will be able too. Now getting to the Theme. This theme will change alot of things. This includes your lock screen, and home screens. Not your notification center to be more clear. Now here are details of how you can get this.
You must download all of these apps before you begin:
TSF Launcher: http://goo.gl/SAzNP
MIUI TSF Theme: http://goo.gl/hgzAX **This theme must be side loaded. (Download Dark Theme)
TSF Pendant Widget: http://goo.gl/JKMM1
Widget Locker: http://goo.gl/JU1hf
JB+ Clock App: http://goo.gl/lgUPW
UCCW: http://goo.gl/TZgw0
MultiPicture Live Wallpaper: http://goo.gl/DlD96
Minimal Reader Pro: http://goo.gl/8lT9z
Pure Music Widget: http://goo.gl/u5HrJ
Simple Calendar Widget: http://goo.gl/scgWA
Aix Weather Widget: http://goo.gl/jtP2Y
Google Drive: http://goo.gl/CS7Nc (not really needed)
BlingBoard Social: http://goo.gl/KTs6h
UBUNTUBOSS.ZIP RESTORE FILE: http://t.co/ttGe5Kl6
After you have downloaded all of those files. The UbuntuBoss.zip you will need to extract it. You will see a folder called "sd card". Open it and move everything inside it to your internal storage. After that open widget locker and go to settings then to Backup/Restore. Press restore. If you did it correctly you will see Ubuntu Lock. Click on that. You should see the lock screen. Click on tap to restore widget. If nothing happens go to UCCW and disable hot spot settings and try again. Next you add the Clock JB widget to it. Resize it to your fit to be more comfortable in your way
You have finished the lock screen now its time for the Home Screen. Open up TSF Launcher. Swipe to the right if the menu bar is not showing up. Click on the gear and then click themes. Now you click the MIUI theme that is in there. You have to restart TSF now. Swipe to left again and click the gear again... But click settings. Go all the way down and press restart. The screen should be clear. Nothing there. If not restart again. Swipe to fingers to the right to get to the Menu Bar. Now on the home screen hold down with one finger until you see the widgets, wallpaper, apps ,etc. Click wallpaper, then live wallpaper. You should see multi live wallpaper. Go to the gallery and it should be in order in an ubuntu folder. When you click on a photo it should say u1, u2, u3, and u5. Do that in order in the homescreen. After you have done that. Take one screen(delete it) by clicking on the bottom and delete it. Do this so the wallpaper is even.
You are done! All you have to do is customize it!
