A few of my favorites that I generated from images I had collected from the internet. The cathedral is Se in Sao Paulo (Brazil)...the subway map is from that city as well (there's a subway station underneath the cathedral plaza).

Hi guys,

I'm a new Member here, but I actually used the forum a lot to hack my Kindle and find Screensavers. Has a web developer I was learning how to use a new development framework and decided to create a Kindle Screensaver website to train myself.

It took me a while, I someone has been faster then me (http://www.kindlescreensavers.com/), but I think mine is more usable and it is ad and watermark free.

So now for anyone who wants to find or share kindle screensavers, see you on http://www.kindle-screensavers.com/

The site is pretty empty for the moment, so anyone motivated to add screensavers is welcome !!

that's a very nice site

allvinc · 05-23-2011, 03:55 AM

Hi. How do you make screensavers? Would like to make my own. What size should it be, and how many Kbs? Thanks!

TaureanBull · 05-24-2011, 05:57 AM

I combined my another hobby into the screensaver making. Being an audiophile I had lots of Music Album art covers. I selected some favourite one converted to the appropriate size and made it B&W.The result has been awesome. I would love to post few of them here but I a not sure if thats legal.

There's always Tumblr! If you decide to do something like that and don't want to post the link in the forum, I wouldn't mind a PM since that sounds like something I'd like to check out.

Ok. Here we go. Some of the samples. I have hundreds of them. These are not necessarily the best ones.

Taurean Bull:

Those look great! You should certainly keep at it. I really like the Fleetwood Mac and Pink Floyd ones. While I'm not into Madonna, those images are good, particularly the one on the bottom, there couldn't be a finer picture to use as far as grayscale.

You mentioned your audiophilia...do you make any color screensavers in 272 x 480? I've been using a program for my Cowon J3 (there are Samsung players and others this applies to) that works pretty nicely and I think might make a quick and dirty solution for Kindle SS's as well, since you can adjust the resolutions.

I'll post a link and edit later as I'm pressed for time now.

My pleasure. I have all these screensavers in colour and big sizes. Just let me know your fav ones.
