Their Web site has a cool Flash preview tool so you can see what the themes looks like on different devices, including Pocket PCs and Smartphones. The theme pack costs $4.95. You should visit just to see the Web site, it's so tasty I feel like licking the screen! :P

Too bad they don't list what resolutions any of the wallpapers are...

It appears that they Smartphone wallpaper maybe the older/smaller 2003SE resolution.

I've sent an email to the company to see if they can clear this up -- I'd be willing to buy if it was formated properly for my screen.

Yea, quoting my own post.... tacky.

Well, I just heard back from Gx5 and they sent me a list of resolutions in the Windows Mobile Package.

It includes the following resolutions:
176x220 (2003se)
240x190 (Treo 700w)
240x320 (2125/SDA, etc)
480x480
640x480

That should do it. ;-)

Oh, and I purchased it too. ;-)

The Windows Mobile package comes with all 14 of the Wallpapers.

Right now I have one of the Fields wallpapers loaded. It's nice, but the contrast isn't that great for reading the white text against a light blue sky.

Maybe they'll come out with one which appears at dusk with a darker sky??? :wink:

Oh! For $5 you get all the wallpapers? That's not bad at all.

I'm totally missing something on this thread. With all of the beautiful Smartphone and PocketPC themes out there...this is a post about background images?!? Are they a relation or something like that? :)

Do you mean relative? Are they a relative? Certianly not. I think you know us better than that. We would always open and forthcoming with information. We're not out to trick anyone.

Some people buy homescreens and ringtones. Others search around for free alternatives. Wallpaper is no different. And I think $5 for all those wallpapers is a much better deal than any ringtone/homescreen that I have seen for sale. ;)

I agree and that's why I did buy this package. I hate all those 3rd party 'things' cluttering up my phone.

Many of the packages out there hog memory and/or clutter the Home Screen with too much junk.

I've had my share of bloated software, memory leaks and don't want the hassel that they create.

For me these wallpapers fit the bill and give my Home Screen a fresh new look. :D

Yes...I meant relative. My brain isn't working well at all!

Anyway...I could go on and on and point people where to get high quality images for free that can be scaled and cropped and used as wallpaper....for free. But if you all are happy paying someone $5 for a few images...(had three different witty lines here but erased them all. Please add your own!) :)

Why pay for a car wash? Most people have a bucket, soap, and a hose.
Why do people pay for digital photo development, when they have a perfectly good colour printer at home?
