Over the weekend i planned to get a headstart on creating a few wallpapers for the G1, but then i got to thinking - what would be the best dimensions to use?

I'd much prefer to make them to fit the screen rather than have them auto-resized.

Am i right in thinking 640x480? But then there's an allowance for the screen sliding..

Nice idea, yeah i think you're right - i did some searching around given the sliding to other screens, the wallapers will need to be 640x480 so they dont get strected out too much.

I added a wallpaper section already here:
http://www.talkandroid.com/wallpapers/

Currently they're just the desktop images from the SDK, but im gonna work on adding a few later tonight.

If anyone wants to do the same please feel free to add them to the gallery

So guys,
Where does it say what resolution we can use?

Andor, when you say that "don't get stretched out too much" what do you mean?
if you add a wall paper 640 x 480 will you see the wallpaper as you were looking in your computer screen? or it will be deformed?
that's my concern.

640 x 480 is the perfect size for the G1

Clicking on a page number in a category returns you to the gallery homepage

Try this:

http://www.talkandroid.com/wallpaper...ers&c=4&page=2

Instead of going to the page 2 of the sci-fi section, I get sent back to the gallery home.
