Arrow Kindle screensaver sites?
I just did the screensaver hack and it's awesome. I've looked around for some kindle screens to throw in there, but there seems to be a few here and a few there, and that's it. Is there a kindle screensaver site or thread that I'm missing somewhere?

I think for the most part people are using their own personal images (I am). There are a few "Don't Panic" images floating around as well as a few others. So far no one has pulled them all together in one place here on MR. I do recall that Kindleboards.com is supposed to have a dedicated thread for them but I haven't checked it our personally.

Here are some pretty nice Halloween screensavers I came across the other day: http://booksprung.com/halloween-scre...or-your-kindle.

I mostly use my own images as well though. If you have even basic Photoshop skills, it's pretty straightforward: resize, downsample if you feel like it, convert to greyscale, adjust brightness/etc, upload, restart Kindle. And that's it, really, in a nutshell.

@maianhvk apreciate you had a look, the screens on the website are just some example I took from the web in order to have something in database, now I'm looking for motivated peoples to add more and more screensavers.

PS: BTW you can send non-grayscale images, they will be resized and converted, you'll see a preview before confirmation

Most of them seem to be a black and white picture of an actress, but I like the Portal one! Thanks.

Just an FYI that I've posted a number of classic fantasy and nautical screens to my website for anyone interested in the works of Frank Frazetta, Ken Kelly, Howard Pyle and others:

I just go to http://www.nook-look.com/ and steal theirs for my Kindle : )

Although I will never understand why people throw their personal pics up there. It's not like I want your niece Janet's birthday party pics on MY device... your family isn't that great. No greater than anyone else's.
