Waddafundraiser.org makes open source live wallpapers that are designed to be customized by replacing the graphics [and changing the name]. For examples of the variety of wallpapers that can be created please see our wallpapers on Play: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...s/developer?id=WaddaFundraiser&token=gNbylfak
We've recently developed a toolkit to make customizing our wallpapers easier and without the need of the Android SDK! We are looking for volunteers to help test the toolkit on multiple Windows and Linux platforms. If you'd like to create a cool custom 3D wallpaper all your own, are willing to install the Java JDK, and don't mind a few potential hiccups please read on!
There are two pieces needed to create a custom WaddaFundraiser wallpaper. The first is the aforementioned toolkit. The second is a wallpaper kit, which contains the working elements of the wallpaper. Here are the links:
Download WaddaFundraiser from SourceForge.net
Download WaddaFundraiser from SourceForge.net
These should be extracted into a new empty folder.
The wf_toolkit.zip file contains a README.txt that will describe how to package the customized wallpaper. The WaddaCube Kit does not yet contain instructions on how to customize it, but essentially the existing images can be replaced. Make sure to keep the original image sizes (mostly 256x256). Images can be added or removed for the various faces of the WaddaCube, which is comprised of six nested cubes where transparency allows inner cubes to be seen. The naming convention for the face images is "face<side>_<level>.png" where "side" identifies which cube face (1-6) and "level" is 1-6 from inner to outer levels of the nested cubes of the WaddaCube (each face has 6 levels for cool effects). Additional images are the core and background images. Image files can be removed or added depending on the effect you want. After the new images are in place then package up the wallpaper using the instructions in the README.txt file.
Note that the Java SDK (in addition to runtime) is required.
Please let us know if you have any questions and if you are willing, please download the two zip files and give it a go!
Thanks!
