that looks like liqflow travelling through there.
any chance of a blank version, I might just be able to bring that to life.

This is the sickest thing ever I have seen!
What's the beat detection backend? Did you do any DSP?

I guess the particle flows is based on OpenGL ES 2. Correct me if I am wrong.

EDIT: Oooo, or change based on the current weather!
yeah i know.. im so gay

or liquid flow or an interactive desktop which moves when you tilt the device (by the accelerometer). you could have a lot of stuff swirling down the background.. such as sand.. water. what not

oh lol i see your post above me now :)

Not quite sure what you mean but just to be clear: I wasn't being ironic or sarcastic or anything,

Actually, could that live-type wallpaper be emulated by a large fullscreen widget? I don't know how overlapping widgets, links and shortcuts behave, but if you could send a 480x800 widget "to the background", in the sense that the status bar as well as no other widgets, links and shortcuts ended up behind it, you could make it look like the wallpaper did all sorts of stuff.
That gorgeous wallpaper from this thread WITH LIQFLOW (could you not make that into a widget, lcuk?), weather, news, comics, clock, slideshow, whatever...

Hmm I wonder, is there anyway to have the n900 auto scroll through the 4 desktops? Like every 5 minutes (or whatever interval a user sets).

Yes, that is what I meant with E17 backgrounds in another post. These are live rendered. But I quite like the 'refreshing' desktop too, it would just fetch every day the latest comic available and resize it for the 800x480. Like for example http://www.foksuk.nl and put the new one as bg.
