Wallpapers stretched - looks terrible - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

For some reason the only wallpapers that don't look terrible are the stockers.
I have a folder full of wallpapers from my HTC One (also 1080p screen) that work perfectly but when I try to use any of them on the Nexus it only lets me use about 1/3 or less of the image so it ends up totally stretched out and grainy.

I use quickpic to set my wallpapers. Go to your wallpaper via the app, and choose set as quickpic wallpaper. I usually get my pictures from zedge

too minimalistic for me but each to their own.
I am using Ice Galaxy animated wallpaper, which is available for free on the Market. Easily one of the best out there...
i opt for dark/black/night types of wallpaper
Download Flikie HD from the market. It's a wallpaper app that has hundreds to choose from. I use it once in a while when I get bored with my wallpaper. Plus, it's in high def so it doesn't appear pixelated on the screen.

What is the best apps or website for acer a100 wallpaper?

I've been trying to find a good wallpaper instead of the ones provided with no luck. The thing is after the wallpaper being cropped, the resolution will degrade so much.
Is there any special apps or web for installing good wallpaper?
Thanks

Wallbase is pretty sweet, so is stumblr. If you use wallpaper wazardi to set wallpapers all is awesome, as you can portrait or scroll with it.

You can try "Auto resize/Dbd Wallpaper Set" from the market.
Any picture can be set as a full screen wallpaper (without crop or black bars).

I used Tablet Wallpapers a little bit, it's troublesome in the way that it pushes ads through notifications (or it did a couple weeks ago, I'm not going back to that).
Not an app, but the website www.interfacelift.com has wonderful photos that can be used in high res and cropped as you like.

Remove the cropping

Does anyone know how to remove the cropping when you set up a wallpaper?

If you're interested, I made a tiny app to do this a loooong time ago, but it still works on ICS. It's not a pretty app, by any means, but it's functional.
Just pick a folder, pick an image, and it'll set it as the wallpaper without prompting for a crop. Just make sure you're using a 1440 x 1280 image to get the best quality.

There is an app called "Wallpaper Wizardrii" with some better cropping options.

I use the wallpaper function of QuickPic.
Dodol wallpaper maker on the market is really good as well.

There is an app called "Just Pictures" that is great for wallpaper. It seems to do a nice job cropping the photos.

Wallpaper image help

Is it possible to make this image fit the entire wallpaper screen? My only wallpaper option is to crop most of the photo. Leaving me with a low res closeup of the gang or the skull.

Just install pic speed wallpaper HD to download and set wallpapers or us Google+ problem solved buddy.
I use "Wallpaper Set and save" free in play store. I also use the wallbase app and have WSS pointed to the save location of wallbase. So its easy to find good wallpaper and then quickly set it so that it fits the screen properly.

Does WSS create duplicates of all your pictures you end up using as wallpaper? The last app I tried (Wallpaper wizardrii) did that and it was extremely annoying

Lock screen Wallpaper

What is everyone using to set lock screen wallpaper? I use the.stock wallpaper chooser but it like zooms into the picture and its really blurry and not even sharp. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

I use a lot of custom HD wallpapers I make from scratch using pretty much any photo editing program. If you make a wallpaper that's exactly the dimensions of your phones native resolution, there is no zooming-in or distortions. However, I don't always do this, and I'm usually generally okay with the results.
What is the resolutions for the note 2 lock screen? And for the home screen??? I'm running jelly thunder so I have a scrolling wallpaper on home screen... I guess I can use Photoshop and make wallpapers if I known the exact resolutions...

Dimensions for a wallpaper image should be 720x1280 (width, height) to avoid any cropping.
