I use wallpaper wizadrii for my background images. However I noticed that all my pics come up sideways if I had taken the pic while holding the phone portrait. Does this mean I have to take l my pics landscape style? I sure hope not. Including use my phone a lot to take pictures.

No you don't have to take the pictures in landscape mode in fact you can rotate the pictures pretty easily.
1. Open gallery and navigate to where the pictures are that you want to rotate.
2. Hit the physical menu button on your phone then chose the "Select item" option
3. Select the pictures you want to rotate
4. Then tap the options button in the top of the far right hand corner
5. Select "Rotate left" or "Rotate Right"
6. Repeat steps 3-5 if you want to rotate the pictures again (For example rotate the pictures another 90 degrees to the left or right)
Hope this helps .
That helps a ton. I knew that I could rotate them in gallery. The weird thing is that they are the correct way in the gallery. But when I open wall paper wizardrii the ones that I took are all on their sides.
I appreciate your help.

Try going into gallery without accessing the wallpaper wizard first, then finding the correctly rotated picture you want and selecting the "Set picture as" option, then selecting either "Home screen wallpaper" or Home and lock screens" or "Lock screen wallpaper".

After moving some images from the camera to a new folder, the regular gallery app won't show them, just a triangle where the image should be. Also, I can't send these images in messages from quickpic. What can I do about this? They're all pics of my newborn son and everybody wants to see him!

did you try clearing quickpic's data and cache
I have a problem with Quickpic too - when I try to assign a picture to a contact - when you pick a picture, choose 'set as' and then try and assign a picture to a contact it just doesn't work. The picture to be assigned opens up with the margins to be set (edit mode), fades away for an instant and then comes back. When you set the margins and click the floppy disc icon (in the top right hand corner) to 'save' the picture the screen goes black and you have to exit the program. I'm fairly sure that this feature used to work fine up until recently. I've even gone as far as to do a factory reset on my phone, reflash my phone's ROM and reinstall the QuickPic app. No change though, I still can't set a contact picture.
Can anyone help? My phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray.

So the images wont show in the stock gallery app or quickpic? Hate to say this but they may have gotten currupted during the move.
I have searched and followed the directions I have found, but I don't have the "done" option after cropping a picture...only a save option. Am I missing something? Can my personal images even be used?
By directions, do you mean
1. Long pressing on blank space on homescreen (stock touchwiz launcher) and selecting Lock Screen?
2. Going to settings>wallpaper>lockscreen?
When you do either one of them, an option should popup to take a photo from the gallery or another application. If you select gallery, you should be presented with most, if not all, the photos on your phone. If you select it, you may be asked to crop it and then in the upper rightmost of the screen, "Done" should be written. Hit that.
Are you following different instructions (not word for word)?
I get all the way to the cropping part and then the only option I have is to save the image.

right, so hit save at that point
When I click save, it sends me back to my home screen! lol
I just tried with Quickpic and when I save the image using that app, it flashes and shows the same screen I had right before I clicked save. It does produce another image, but isn't saved as a lockscreen wallpaper even though that is what I selected.
Has anyone else had this problem or is this simply an error on my part somewhere?
Settings > Wallpaper > Lockscreen
After you hit lockscreen, choose Gallery, then choose whatever pic you wish to use. Crop the picture how you wish, then hit 'Save' in the upper-right and corner. *Hitting save DOES NOT save the picture in gallery, it only saves the picture you crop as your wallpaper!*
Only mine isn't saving it as a lockscreen wallpaper
Let me try is as a homescreen wallpaper....even though I want it as a lockscreen one.
Of course it worked as a homescreen!
BUT....I want it on my lockscreen. lol

....I did it that way first.
Thank you all for trying to help. If it worked for everyone else, I must have a setting different somewhere. Or extreme user error. lol
I finally just uninstalled QuickPic and it worked. It seems QuickPic was taking over for the Gallery.
You must have selected Quick Pic as the default app somewhere along the way.

Hello guys,
I was just wondering if there was an alternative to multi picture live wallpaper? Since I got the JB update last night mplw isn't working for me.
I saw something in one of the recent JB threads that there's a single image live wallpaper but I can't find it.
Thanks.

Panoramic scrolling wallpaper?
Is there a way to have a panoramic picture (one i took preferably) to span the entire tab screens horizontal space.
Such that the left edge of the panorama is the left edge of left most home screen and right edge is right most home screen edge. So when you scroll home screens it scrolls along the panorama.
I have tried multiple apps, and the ones that allow me to select my pic, crop a small part of it for wallpaper, but i want the full picture.

An app to set that up would be amazing. Not sure if theres anything that does that now, but it is possible to do it manually with Multi Picture Live Wallpaper.
Take a panorama, split it into X parts where X is how many screens you have. Then set each part as the background for MPLWP
Ok so i did a little research and nothing so far. I have a picture that i want to make my homescreen. I want to make it not have scroll but every app i found just blows it up and just centers the picture. i saw something about modded touch wiz but im hoping to find a easier way because honestly im on the run. I just want the image to be cropped to fit with no scroll.
Any help?
Try this app. It caused no excessive battery drain and it made it easy to set walls the way I wanted to. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cellophanesoftware.superwalllite
Also, you could download picspeed wallpaper app. It offers the ability to set a wall through the gallery using it and you can choose portrait mode. See screenshots. In the first pic, you'll select the 2nd option from the bottom. In the 2nd pic, you'll select the highlighted box on the left under the pic for portrait mode.
Good luck, let me know of any questions.

Picspeed is this app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.srsdev.wallpapers
The first one is a live wallpaper app, it will only show up if you select live wallpaper option. This is the reason I mentioned the piece about the minimal battery drain when using it. Go with Picspeed and see if it works for you first though. You may also have to use a 3rd party gallery to select the photo before setting it as your wall. I use quickpic cause it's fast. I just open quickpic, navigate to the photo I want, press menu soft key, select set as, select the option shown above in the pic, and boom! Works every time.

If I take a pic in landscape mode with stock camera app then swipe to the left to view the image in photos it immediately rotates the view and forces me out of landscape view. If I exit then go back to photos it displays normally this only happens when swiping to photos from the camera. Minor issue but pretty annoying when I want to quickly review a pic I just took. I can't find any obvious settings in camera or photos. Any ideas? Should/can I make it use gallery app for this maybe?
