    iPhone/iPod Wallpapers - RedLynx Games

    I am currently working on some home screen and lock screen images for the iPhone/iPod Touch.
    Feel free to use them for yourself on your own iOS device.
    I will add more as I do them.
    These were designed at Retina resolution (640x960) but I have also downscaled them to 320x480 for older non retina devices but as I don't have one I can't see how everything aligns. If it looks wrong then let me know and I'll try to redesign in the lower resoultion.
    If you have any ideas you want to put my way in terms of design for future wallpapers then post them here and I'll see what I can come up with.
    I am planning on doing backgrounds for Trials HD, Trials Evolution, 1000 Heroz and Draw Race 2.

    For now here is a little test I did to get you started. Hope you like it

    320x480 (Standard)



    640x960 (Retina)

    Just thought, non retina devices can't have a homescreen background can they. Sorry.

    Bah, yours aren't lame. Mine just has a bit more work put into it. Just the background on mine is probably 7-10 different layers.

    As to the "how";

    You need a jailbreak, iFunbox (PC app that allows viewing iDevice file structure), and winterboard to apply my theme.

    I want more options than Apple allows, such as the option to build a custom theme, using different SMS ringtones, and having a custom lockscreen, so Jailbreaking is a good fit.





    Jailbreaking is viewed by many as piracy, which is a fallacy. It does, however, give you the option to run unsigned code, much like Droid OS.

    It ultimately boils down to how much control you want over your hardware.

    Edit: I do not encourage you, or anyone, to perform a "Jailbreak" on your iDevice. Performing a jailbreak on your device without advanced iOS knowledge can adversely affect your device. I can not be held accountable for your actions ever.

    Those are awesome! I'll carry on with my little project then for us non jailbreakers but damn would I love the freedom to do what you have.

    The first ones I have done were just purely what I did to set out a template and have a quick fiddle about.
    Hopefully the Draw Race 2 ones will be a little better.
