[Live Wallpaper] Awesome Snow

Hi Folks,
This is my first try at a live wallpaper I hope you like it!
You can adjust the amount of snow, the speed, the size and set a background gradient colour
EDIT you can now set a custom picture background
Here it is in action.

I like it. Wish I didn't have to accept an offer to change the settings, but very nice.

Thanks MJS. The advert only appears once, you shouldn't have to see any after that ever again.
I was experimenting if adverts would be a way to allow me to continue developing apps and give them away for free. For the moment the answer is a resounding NO . I've made exactly $0 from 250+ downloads.
Oh Well

christmas comes early !.. nice LW!

Hehe Thanks! We had our first snow shower of the winter here in Northern Ireland last night, so it feels appropriate

this is so nice (i need 10 posts)
but it looks fine, besides its rainy here.

looks good. can I set a picture as a backround for it?

Hi RomBox,
Not at the moment, just a gradient background. It is something I'd like to add though.
All the best,
Ash

great! really gives the christmas feel, it has yet to snow in NC although it has been cold!

Thanks Darken,
@mjs, I've removed the need to click an advert to configure the wallpaper, I just have a small link to my Awesome Widgets app, but it isn't necessary to click it to enjoy the wallpaper in full.
Happy Holidays!
Ash

Very cool, thanks mate!

Is there any Live Wallpaper snow that user can change background to their own?

I think this one allows it: -

It looks good, but it's not free!
All the best,

very nice! Setting own Background would be great

I have some freelance work to do at the moment, but hopefully after that I will add an option to set a background

Just downloaded it, my favorite christmas wallpaper.
There is some banding on the Galaxy S2, rated a 4 for now hopefully that can be fixed.

Thanks for the rating and reporting the problem, I'll have a look into it. I was pretty sure I had turned on dithering (to remove banding), but I'll have another look. My brother has an S2, so hopefully he can test it for me.
Is the banding in the configuration or on the wallpaper itself?
All the best,
Ash

I think it's in the wallpaper its self because I haven't noticed on other screens or wallpapers. I've attached some screenshots where you can see it hopefully that helps you figure it out. Thank you for the great support.

Any way to get them to show in full glory with ADW? It seems to zoom in and crop.

Get the app 'Wallpaper Wizardrii', it allows you to fit the whole image to the screen as your wallpaper.

I don't use ADW, but QuickPic is a good gallery app for cropping wallpapers to make your homescreen and lockscreen.

search on sansung apps for "pimp your screen" app.is free with hd wallpapers!

[2.1+] Orbit :: UPDATED

Orbit is my new live wallpaper. Colored circles orbit a point, which changes depending on where your finger is,
if you aren't touching the screen then it defaults back to the middle. The animation is smooth, each circle has
its own size, speed and distance from the centre point. Practically everything can be changed in the settings.
It's quite hard to explain what it's like, I think I make it sound quite boring but actually it's fun to play with and
very unique, give it a go! Please let me know what you think, whether it be good or bad. I would love to hear
suggestions on how I can improve it.
Thanks.
v1.3
- added the option to choose if circles grow/shrink
- added the option to choose if circles are random sizes
- slight performance enhancement
v1.2
- circles now move and follow at different speeds
This was actually originally intended but I screwed up a line of code, oops.
Now the circles orbit and follow at different speeds, which is a much nicer effect.

Also, please let me know if it lags a bit on your phone.

Trying it out now!

tested it out on my A953 and it seemed to work just fine. no lag.
not my style of wallpaper, but i'm sure many others will enjoy it.

Great! Thanks for the feedback.

v1.1
- added the ability to change the orbit speed
You can change the speed from 0% - 100% in increments of 10%.

It does lag at times on my phone. I was just going to suggest a setting to adjust the orbit speed and noticed you already did! I do like the paper... Nice job!

Seems to run pretty smooth at slower orbit speeds...

I had a feeling it might, thanks for letting me know. I'll try to improve it, meanwhile reducing the number of circles lightly should make it better.

v1.2
- circles now move and follow at different speeds
See the OP edit for info.

v1.3
- added the option to choose if circles grow/shrink
- added the option to choose if circles are random sizes
- slight performance enhancement

If anyone tests this with a tablet, please let me know if a larger orbit size is needed. Thanks.

Just thought I'd let you know I still run this. It's one my favorite live wallpapers! Thanks

[APP][2.2+][9-11-13] Clock in full screen app v1.0.1

Every play a game and wonder what time it is? I have. And while smart status bar and the Galaxy S4 stock have a way to show the status bar, it would be nice to simply have one on the screen!
So i made a very simple app that listens for when you are in a full screen app and it will show the clock in the upper right hand corner.
This is a beta ish release. Meaning, there more than likely will be bugs. I tested it myself and it seems to be working great. But dont expect perfection. If it crashes please let me know and post a logcat.
If you guys like this i may consider upgrading it to include other features, for instance, size of clock font, background color, background transparency, location, auto start on boot, etc. Also, dont hesitate to donate It gets me motivated to improve my apps!!
Just download and install. Run it once select start, and thats it.
UPDATE: 8-11-13
- Code optimization and cleanup
- No message for showing clock
UPDATE: 9-11-13
- It now starts itself on boot
- Fixed layout issue

[APP][4.0+] Kolrs 1.43 - HD Wallpaper Generator

Update: V1.43 is avaliable with better looking effects, and a new one called Blurry Vision.
--
Hi, I have just released my first app "Kolrs", and so any initial feedback is very welcome. The UI is a bit plain in this initial release, but the functionality is quite okay.
Basically you generate super sharp HD wallpapers (no JPEG encoding loss), using different effects, and then set it instantly - no browsing and downloading needed!
Some effects do needs tweaking, certainly the color schemes - but some of the generated wallpapers looks really nice.
Get it free on Google Play : Kolrs - HD Wallpapers App
Thanks, any feedback greatly welcome!

Nice Share

Thanks @Fly2M

GOOD JOB , nicely build

This is a really neat app.
It would be nice to see some darker colours though , but I like it. Nice job
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Labs

Thanks DaksAnkit and golfgtiedition30! Really glad you like it - regarding darker colors, I am looking to make the colors more stable and always nice. Maybe even an advanced more with color choosings of some sort.

Nice app

agreed cool app thank you

Thanks both - I hope to have v1.01 out soon. I have another nice effect planned.

I have now released version 1.2. Now you can redo an effect instantly by tapping the middle section of the screen. Also, all effects have been reworked and a new one, Glow, has been added. Feel free to try it.

Wallpaper gerenation is great idea !

How did you make that?
It crashes when I use Avantgarde. Crash stack sent

Hm thanks for the crash report iRYO400 - I think it was unresponsive UI due to the amount of time Avantgarde takes, so its not a crash per se. :|
I just updated the app now with a new effect called Trifecta and bette colors btw - try it out - its v1.22.

V1.3 added with info and new screenshot in the first post.
Did not find a way to edit the thread title I believe.
Edit : found out :|

Update; V1.43 is avaliable with better looking effects, and a brand new one called Blurry Vision.

Hey, I tried your app and it indeed generates nice wallpapers! Something I miss is to be able to lock specific colors or tones in the generation.

Thanks Hatros; The goal is to be able to lock / real time change hue's in a future release. Glad you found it valuable.

Nice application, congrats!

At first i was like "hm.." but playing around with it i really enjoyed it. Easy to use and fun playing with it - nice app!
