The Screensaver Thread - Page 2

Here are a few of mine. The first is from a cemetery photo shoot, the second is a joke from a discussion I had elsewhere, and the third is just to mess with people. I'm working on some others.

The iPhone screen is a fantastic idea.

Thanks to all for Jailbreaking and Screensaver Mod - what fun!

By the way, where did all the old screensavers from Amazon go to?

I was kinda fond of Charlotte and Harriet...

Aloha!

My screensavers. Ignore the post associated with it and it's salty language.

These are lovely. Thanks for sharing!

In my usual bass-ackwards way, I've started creating screensavers even though I haven't actually hacked my Kindle yet. Will be happy to share them here once I've given them a practical test drive

Kawika:

The originals are in a backup folder in the hierarchy of where you placed your own pics.

I tried a couple, but the look of the drawings didn't quite mesh with the borders. I'm waiting for the right composition of the two and I'm sure it'll look great!

aproudlove, those are fantastic!

Y'all are making me want to get off my duff and start converting some more of my photos into Kindle screensavers.

silasgreenback · 02-06-2011, 03:14 PM

Aproudlove:

There are several great screensavers in the Duokan forum that may be to your liking.

Translated Duokan Forum

On the link, scroll towards the bottom and click on "To look at for Kindle2 \ Kindle3 software download"...through that link, you'll find the screensaver threads.

P.S. Nicely done on your own screensavers!

CWatkinsNash · 02-06-2011, 03:50 PM

A few more of mine...

Kenneth_irl · 02-06-2011, 05:18 PM

Nice to see a screensaver thread.

Cool pictures so far, but some of the the pictures posted seems to be a tiny bit off a fuld 600x800 resolution causing white lines on the Kindle. Maybe I just downloaded them in a wrong way, I dunno, but it's very easy to fix in paint.

Thanks for the comments guys, nice of you to say and thanks for the pointer to the duokan forum.
Most of the tiger stuff is just because I was born in the year of the tiger, which (to me anyway) is kind of cool, so I just went looking for some stuff in relation to that but there is some nice imagery in that forum too.
I really liked Kawika's illustrations too, especially Pandora's box, you've got me thinking that it might not be a bad idea to create some themed mythology stuff. Greek gods or something?
