I download a wallpaper the size of 480x320 but I can't get all of pic on the screen (it is too large).  I then can crop (on Aria) but still don't get all of pic that I want.  Any suggestions.  I tried using "Wallpaperio" to create.

Remember that the wallpaper is across 7 home screens, though it doesn't scroll over 480 pixels each time you switch screens. Resolution should be 960x800, rather than 3360x800!

And just to clarify - what you're trying to do on the phone when you crop the image is take an image that's in the aspect ratio of 360x480 and crop it into an aspect ratio of 960x480, which is why it's cutting part of it. You can make a file of size 960x480 with the 360x480 image in the middle (will need to be stretched to fit the 800 vertical pixels, but then you'll end up with wallpaper only on your center home screen.

I had the same problem and fought with the thing forever before realizing that the wallpapers such as those provided are actually in a more landscape than portrait aspect ratio. Good luck!

I noticed this. There is weird how even setting the background 960x480 which is the PERFECT resolution for the setup, still crops the image.

So am I to understand that my 960x480 (real estate) screen needs to stretch a 480x360 image to fill the screen?

I didn't have the same problem when I used a 960x800 image.

By default when you go to set the wallpaper, it gives you a little green box in the middle of the image - you need to press and hold on one of the sides of the box to change its size. Stretch the box to fit the image - it should fit perfectly as the box is fixed to a 960x800 aspect, and you won't have to stretch the image.

The fact that you can change the size of the box isn't obvious, but if you press and hold one side of the box, little arrows will show up on all the sides. Good luck!

HA! That was it, thank you so much, no more pixelated background images.

Thanks for the helpful replies.  It worked like a champ at 960x800!
