Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

Does N900 support animated gif picture as animated (not static) wallpaper:confused:

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

do you have any 800x480 animated wallpaper? :eek:

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

Here is an example http://www.skinbase.org/rate.php?skins=23164.

although it is not exactly 800x480, i believe it is large enough to be stretched to fit the screen. Now i wonder if it will appear animated or static.

which os does?

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

If non-OS firmware like nokia s40 or generic SE phones are able to support animated gif files as animated wallpaper natively, why not OS?

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

dude please, think how is gonna look your n900 deskop with an streched gif.

dont worry may later you gonna get dream scene on your n900 desktop. lol

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

dream scene will be a wonderful addition to n900, lol.

Why the ridicule? It is a simple yes or no question...does it support animated gif's for backgrounds or not?

Re: Animated GIF picture as Animated Wallpaper
 

Well... this is X windows, right? so it seems like you might be able to use some of the classic x-root-window animation apps, like xsnow or xdesktopwaves, http://xdesktopwaves.sourceforge.net/

I used to use an old X program called "xanim" to do this kind of stuff with x-root-window settings. I think it's still around. Maybe it can be compiled and configured to run when X starts on the N900.
