hey guys, i was wondering if it was possible to use a .gif file thats like a small movie as a background for the home screen. i have it for the background in the s2u2 program (slide to unlock) and i really wanted it to match with the normal background. thanks in advance.
I'm not that really that too Techy when it comes to this handheld devices - Flashing a Rom is one of the things i've really afraid of....so i basically I end up on searching a cab programs that is available here in XDA... and i just want to share this things on what i did on HTC Blackstone...
My totally a fanatic of the dark knight movie, so I created theme for this one and also im really looking for a good drop down menu for htc Blackstone which out of desperation... i did something, which is totally clever Drop Down Menu
heres the pic of my blackstone drop down menu on different program tab

Hi butz007,
Like your work!
Are you into creating animated gif as well? I like to have matching startup and shutdown animation for my TP2 in wvga format, same as Blackstone If you could make some with maybe matching wallpapers for TF3D and S2U2 and some TF3D tab icons perhaps that would be brilliant.
cheers M

using shake and save, make a screen shot all your program tabs and operations on going on there, which btw may i ask you the windows 3.5 that you were telling me is the vertical sliding navigation with the hexagon shape icon on their start up? right? does the hexagon shape can be customize?; say it can reduce its transparency and make it more visible, and it recalls an image, just like mine it recalls my today's image background, so we could really make some fun out it...
make a screen and post it here let me see what i can do?
cheers!!!!

A TP2 is very much like a Blackstone with a slide-out keyboard. At moment I'm using the wallpaper with the flames that came in the default set. For S2U2, home screen, all TF3D tabs and XDAShutdown. My startup ani is the Windows 7 one that's floating around.
What I'm thinkinhg of though is Gotham city as a background where it's almost dark, to give the screens some depth viewed from let's say 6th floor? The darkness is for contrast with the fonts and icond from TF3D. Maybe it can be aranged that the weather tab isn't too much interfering with the picture. For startup ani the same picture would be the end slide and it might be starting complete black and then lightens up a bit, some light go on in some of the buildings. Can you see the picture in your mind? The shut down ani might be same but the other way around.
Splash screens? I think frames that give you a close up from a part of Gotham or some stills from the last movie.
Problem is I can sketch it maybe on paper, but not on a computer. And in words, well let's see what you think off it.
How about graphics/art for and application?
check out S2U2

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

How to change the resolution of a GIF file without loosing animation. With several diffferent programs I tried to resize the picture and make it fit for my screen (s8530)
This is the picture I want resize to 480x800, original resolution is 251x226
How to do that??

Best regards!!
Wow... complex animation...
Why not save as single Pictures... then convert all single Pics in your resolution...
Then make animated GIF with new sized Pics.
Best Regards
nice idea, thank you and keep it good work
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!

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.

All right... Thanks for your explaination!
