[Q] Animated gif with Widget Zooper? - Zooper Widget General

Hello all!
I would like to know how can i integrate an animated gif in a widget ZW please...
I made an animated gif with UnFreez, the animation works perfectly with my Samsung Galaxy's gallery, but not if i try to define it in a ZW...
Then here's my question: Can ZW display an animated gif, or not?...
Thanks per advance!

No animated gif support.

Thanks for your reply, maybe in a future update?....

I wouldn't wait for it. Zooper renders its widgets by converting them to a bitmap and then displaying said bitmap. So for every change in a widget the whole bitmap has to be re-rendered, which is a resource heavy process. Displaying a GIF would mean refreshing the widget multiple times per second, which would be too much processing demand for most devices amd result in a very choppy animation.

Animated wallpapers for TF3D2.5

I have found the animated wallpapers which are located in the Windows/Animated Wallpaper, there are currently three, _RAW_Light.png, _RAW_Brush.png and _RAW_Circle.png.
These are in some way linked by a Cache file.
I can create animated png files (apng) the easiest way is via the firefox plugin.
Save them out as a single png and place them into the folder in Windows as above, but they don't work...
Anyone had any luck ?
That is because the animation is not in the .png file. It is in the Manila files. The file you are looking at is just the background/preview of the animation. If you look at the backgrounds, some parts of the animation overlap parts of manila while others are underneath it, and such cannot be done with a simple animation. These are scripted animations.
Is there already anything like backgroud for all Tabs, just for animated wallpaper?
just wanted to subscribe and kick this up again.
Realy want to use this instead of the sometimes laggy weather animations

[MOD] Manila 2.5.2011/2.5.2012 Background On All Tabs - UPDATED February 28, 2010

Hi, people.
This is a variation on the now classic "background on all tabs" mod for Manila. It was made for the new Manila 2.5.2011/2.5.2012 and does the following:
1. Displays the selected wallpaper on all the tabs of the Manila interface.
2. It stretches the wallpaper so it's rendered the same way as the WM 6.5 is - so you can use the same wallpaper on both Manila and WM and it will look the same. The only difference is that if the wallpaper is smaller than the screen area it occupies it is not tiled, as the WM is.
3. It sets the opacity of the wallpaper to 65 (65%) so it looks similar to the WM wallpaper as displayed on the start menu.
It still suffers from the low quality wallpaper thing in Manila (as the texture size limitation to 512x512 in the OpenGL on Touch HD makes Manila downsample the wallpaper to 512x512 and then use it as a texture on a bigger rectangle - there are several techniques to have the wallpaper displayed in full quality, but that's beyond the scope of this mod).
I'm usually using it with 800x800 wallpapers, so it's consistent with WM even in landscape.
Let me know if it works for you, guys. Thanks!
Notes:
I am attaching the raw files so that others can integrate this into their stuff, if they want to ..
Update:
Version 0.2:
The wallpaper stretching was not 100% correct when getting into/going out from landscape mode.
Version 0.3:
Small fixes + a version with 100% wallpaper opacity.
Manila 2.5.2012 - Bk4All.cab:
Tested on 2.5.2012 with Co0kieMonster's famous mod, it should play along well with a variety of Manilas and Manila mods, as it only changes the background image loading code, no mode9 file modifications anymore - thanks Co0kieMonster for the hint.
Thanks! Have been waiting for this one
Works like a charm on Energy Leo ROM 23529.
Great Job. This works well
Thanks for this share. Much appreciated.
one problem
this bg 4 all messes up the alignment of the call history and hides the calendar link on the home page, if the cookie monster mod is already on the phone

A new version compatible with Co0kieMonster's mod (and, probably, most of the other Manila mods) has been uploaded.
Enjoy!

Yes. All you have to do is select the same image as 'Home tab wallpaper' and 'Lock screen wallpaper' and you'll end up with identical wallpapers on Manila and Windows Mobile, in both portrait and landscape - to avoid tiling anf possibly other issues, use an image of at least 800x800 pixels.

[Q] Where to find layout-style wallpapers to use for creating theme?

Hey guys,
So I've got an awesome theme design in mind, and i need to create a wallpaper design that lines up with the elements of my theme (all the Widgets etc).. For example, the wallpaper having a sidebar, or segments for the Widgets and whatnot to sit inside of.. stuff like that..
Anyhow, I'm gonna give it a shot, but im not super pro with Photoshop. So to save some time, i was going to try to just find a wallpaper that i can work with. So here's my question:
- Where can I find wallpapers that have these types of "layout" style of designs, that i can use for creating a theme with?
Been searching everywhere but can't seem to figure out how to word it correctly :/
Thanks in advance!
-Ender
Like, is there a specific name for that type of wallpaper? Something like "layout wallpaper" or something I can search for to find the type of wallpapers I'm looking for?

Google "Icon Shelf Wallpaper for Android/IOS".. It's rather simple to make those wallpapers from any image actually, so if you'd prefer your own custom image, you could google "how to make wallpapers with icon shelves for android/ios". ^^

I usually just use a bitmap on a bottom layer, because you can adjust whatever image you bring in, allowing you to use whatever image you want as a background/starting point.

Loading GIF Jagged Edges

Hello XDA community.
I'm a 3D artist and Graphic designer and recently a client asked me to create a loading screen GIF for their Android/IOS app.
The Animated GIF pops up when some page is loading so it needs transparency or Alpha outside of the actual GIF.
The issue here is that the GIF i made has Jagged and Pixelated edges. This might be because of the limitation of GIF format.
Is there a way to make an animated GIF with the Bg removed that has smooth edges?
If there isn't then how do other apps do this? How are those animated things implemented?
I couldn't find anything searching on google. Please help.
All help is greatly appreciated.
