Hacks Patterns from squidfingers.com/patterns screensavers, lot of them.

http://squidfingers.com/patterns/ is an awesome source of beautiful patterns.
I always wanted them as screensavers on my Kindle and well now you can have them too.
Thanks to Photoshop actions and some time I've made a gallery of 176 screensavers for you to use, 600x800 resolution.
I hope they'll make your Kindle screen more pleasant.

Those look pretty nice.

I have a scrapbooker in the family and some of the papers have really great patterns on them. I may have to try scanning & converting some of those.

These are beautiful, but how would I go about putting them on my K3 please?

Thanks for that

But now I'm a bit confused.

I installed the Jailbreak and Screensaver hacks successfully and now I would like to put the beautiful patterns on my K3. Is there a file of them all that I have missed or do they need to be d/l individually from the website?

Thanks.

I d/l 3 from the "Pattern Gallery, saved them and then transferred them to the SS folder on Kindle. They were all only 1kb or less and .png files. But they don't show as a SS when I power off.

Edit: I didn't realise I had to do a restart, so now the patterns are showing.

But my original question remains.....is there a way of d/l all the patterns rather than individually?
