I was wondering if there was a way to use your camera as a live wallpaper so it would just show what your camera sees in the background of your phone so it would look like your phone is transparent
One already exists. I haven't used it so I don't know how good it is but its gotten good reviews. Here is the link.

If you've installed a new launcher, you may find the same thing I did: it's pretty much impossible to get an image to not distort when used for wallpaper. I messed with this for hours.
Then I discovered the app Wallpaper Set and Save. It runs on the NC, and it does one thing: set wallpaper so it's not distorted. Perfect.
Can you post the apk?

Sure. Here 'tis.
Dolphin 4 set the wallpaper for me from an internet picture just fine, FYI.
This is only a work around though. I want undone whatever it was the launcher pro did or im going to flash my nook and start over.
I'd guess that Launcher Pro just undid whatever hackery B&N did to their rom to correct the natively terrible way android handles desktop images. This app just rehacks it.
Same issue
I had the same problem but what I did was just set launcher pro to show 1 col by 1 row then after the resize went back to 10 col by 10 rows. First pop-up the settings menu with the tiny little menu button between the battery and "U" buttons in the soft menu. Rows and columns are set in preferences>Homescreen settings.
Note this just got my icons back on screen but the wallpaper is still oversized.
Would a subforum for people who want to be LendMe friends be a good idea?
Or would it be better off here?
I think it would work out very well to separate the conversation so people can find people they want to lend books between. It didn't occur to me before for XDA because most of the forums have to do with phones that dont have this sort of social feature
just a thought

A very good thought. We just have to find Nookers who share similar interests. Its own thread would be a good idea.

I'm certain a whole new website/forum will crop up with people willing to lend books to one another. The great thing about lending through the Nook is that you know you'll get your book back! (That is until someone figures out how to hack it to keep the book )

When I use the app, the wallpapers end up super-pixellated.
Any other hackery to get the wallpaper issues fixed?

Ok guys well here is a a home i found on another forum. Under XPERIA forums, they have a app called AMBIENT TIME. Its a home replacement, works pretty good on my phone. Im not rooted or anything 2.1update 1. What i dont get is, why with this home replacement we get, live wallpaper as the stock backgound of this new home. But in our stock home, we dont have no live wallpapers? If some 1 can find out how that works plz let me know. n here is the link provided for the app. Try it out and let me know what results u all get.

Not a live wallpaper as it BG, that is the home app itself.

ive seen that topic. im trying to start a topic about where people get their wallpapers.
Wallbase.net is probably my favorite, they have 650,000+ wallpapers.
4walled.org has some good ones, but also has very, very NSFW images, so be careful using that one. You can filter the NSFW results out, but I think that removes a lot of perfectly safe images too since it depends on the community to click the Safe checkbox.
I did a little searching on the forums but havnt come accross a post that has the correct size for a wallpaper size that wont look all pixelated and terrible when applied. ive tried 1200x1024 and even 1900x1024 it all looks pretty bad. Any information would be awesome! Thanks
No offense but didn't look to hard. The VERY first page of Themes and Apps section has the thread your looking for, with all the details you want. In a nutshell there is no REAL resolution, but that thread has the solution and it works very well.

my bad i searched in General and Q&A i didnt think it would be in themes.
No worries, if you could see my face that was typed with a smile. We're all here (well most of us anyway) to make this awesome device more usable for everybody, i don;t mind helping at all. Didn't mean to come off rude if i did

Give Multi Picture Live Wallpaper a try, free in the market. Has worked 100% for me.
Rodney
Install QuickPic (free) and set wallpaper with it. It'll keep the image nice and sharp.
example: http://k.min.us/ib6DuE.png
It's also a great image viewer, faster than the gallery and easy to exclude certain folders.
Agree with previous post. Greaet app.
Quickpic does a good job for Portrait wallpapers but fails badly at Landscape. Ive tried everything possible on the nook for a locked landscape setup and the best result ive had was gathering a ton of pictures, slapping them into a folder, then selecting that folder inside a app called Wall Switch from the market, and just keep switching till a razor sharp one shows up.
I know its not a proper method, but after a while, at least one of them shows up super sharp and high-res and looks amazing. Wish i could be more precise, but thats all i got.
I love what you did

Eozoon, I wish you had posted how you arranged such a nice looking layout. Does anyone know what he used? I would love to know.
*EDIT* I found out where the battery and disk widgets come from, if I find out anymore I'll update my post.
Calendar widget
CPU widget
Folder icons
Battery % widget => Mini Info
disk usage widget => Mini Info
Toggle widget
Launcher/theme
I forgot what the clock is might just be beautiful widgets. Sorry I used to know but this ins't much help.
The cpu widget is SetCPU.
Not sure about the others.

Calendar widget - I assume you mean the clock? That's Simi Clock, I also use Simple Calendar Widget for the actual calendar in an other homescreen.
CPU widget - SetCPU
Folder icons - Simi Folder
Battery % widget => Mini Info
disk usage widget => Mini Info
Toggle widget - Widgetsoid
Launcher/theme - ADW, default theme, I think. Wallpaper from Wallbase.
Thanks for the info. Now I can get mine looking spiffy.

Search on the market for an app called "Image 2 Wallpaper". It's given really clear images and allows for different scaling options.
Anyone know where I can get this wallpaper? I really like it.

I believe it is a live wallpaper. I would like it as well. I don't think it was included in the system dump though. Someone could correct me if I'm wrong.
if the skies the limit, where's the urgency?
Yeah, it's live.
I'd be fine with a static version if someone could just photoshop the stuff ontop of the wallpaper, etc.
Would that be feasible?
How's this? I totally forgot where I found this, but I'm using it with Intel's ICS Launcher, and it's pretty nice. I'm working through the sdk now, so if I manage to get the live wallpaper to work, I'll post that as well.

If you do, that'd be awesome! Then we could try to get the new youtube, launcher2, and more to work xP. But one step at a time lol.

It's a Galaxy S2 wallpaper. (actually I'm not 100% it's gs2, but it's definitely a default wp from one of the latest phones lol)
Here's a better quality one.
You know what, I think you might be right. I think it's actually from the Nexus S…my fault. It looked kinda close to being a static image of the live wallpaper they used last night (granted I didn't get a great look at it), so I figured I'd share. The sdk dump has very little of value in it, other than for development purposes, but I'll download the Galaxy Nexus dump tomorrow, and see what I can find.
