WallpaperCreator S9

Kizune · 12-31-2009, 14:50

Part one of my New Year's Eve present.

WallpaperCreator S9 is a tool to create easily new wallpaper for your S9.

First you have top open the picture you want to use as wallpaper.
When it's opened, you can drag the picture however you want on the preview pane around which has the size of the S9's screen.
You can also resize the picture (the aspect ratio is retained) or rotate it.
In the end, you can either save the whole picture (means the visible part and the hidden part) or only the visible part of the picture.

The first method to save the wallpaper is there because... no, that's a surprise. Has something to do with part 2 of my New Year's Eve present.

Wow, great work dnw!
I used photo editing programs to do the job, but this is quicker, easier and less CPU-consuming

thanks a lot!

Might be the limitations of Cowon's Flash 7 program. I hope they update sooner.

And of course, this program might not be the best in preserving quality in resizing and cropping images. It still does its job well, though.

Unfortunately I have noticed this at well. It seems there is a lot of added compression, since the files are also quite small...
Could you make them save as PNG, will be easier also for d-touch since it will add that as default extension to file names?

Franki · 01-01-2010, 07:22

Very nice app, DNW.
I noticed a quite big bug though:
The wallpapercreator does not shutdown properly. After clicking the X, the creator appears to be shutdown (not visible anymore in the taskbar), but in the taskmanager is it still running.

Kizune · 01-01-2010, 08:01

That's strange. VS2008 stops debugging as soon as I close the App which means the process is terminated.
But since the quality of the pictures doesn't seem to be very good I have to recode some things, so I can also fix this issue.

edit: With closing the App you mean you tap the X of the window where the picture preview is, right? Then the start window should appear. Do you close this, too?

Kizune · 01-01-2010, 08:34

I found the bug and I set the default quality to 100.

By the way, you can save pictures as png. In the filetype box you can choose it in the save window. Was there since v1.0.

And now all we need is the (default) resolution for "D-Touch": 436x480
