iPhone 4 Wallpaper Thread

Since it was mentioned in the WWDC10 thread by X-Frame to create an iPhone 4 wallpaper thread, I figured I would do so, as I had already updated my old wallpapers for the new display. The original iPhone wallpaper thread didn't go anywhere and died off pretty quickly. It would be great to have a thriving iPhone 4 thread to grab new wallpapers from, for use on the home screen or lock screen.

Since the iPhone 4 has a beautiful, high-resolution display, all of your old iPhone wallpapers will look pretty crappy on the new screen. It's time to upgrade those wallpapers to the new iPhone 4 resolution, which is 960x640 with a pixel density of 326 pixels per inch. In comparison, the past 3 iPhone generations have had a screen resolution of 480x320. That's quite a difference.
 
Thank you!!!

Downloaded a lot of them. I think I have about a collection of 20 just from today.

Also, if you go to InterfaceLIFT they're already giving resolutions for the iPhone 4 display, though it seems they're simply cropping the images but I'm not positive ..
 
It's really hard to believe that these screens will fit to a 3.5" screen with no rescaling. They are so huge on the monitor where I'm looking at them now. Pixel density on new iphone is seriously insane.

What are you using to make these, by the way?

Photoshop. A lot of the iPhone wallpapers on my 3G are just resized wallpapers from my MacBook Pro. Since I have all of those wallpapers in a higher resolution, I just edit them down to 960x640.

Looking through iPhoto at my old wallpapers from the original iPhone makes me sad. I don't have the higher res versions. :(

Hey! Thanks a lot. If you have still the original, could you rather do a 1024x1024 picture? That way if I use the normal size, it won't be cropped or zoomed in when I put it on widescreen mode.

Ah, didn't think of that. The existing link has been updated!

Thanks a lot! I will receive my iPad in the next few minutes (or hours if the delivery guy is late). Can't wait to try out that wallpaper (I got a few more, but I love this one, hahaha)

Yeah, when I first saw the images I had to check the size of them because I thought "Those are far too big for the new iphone".
 
Here are some wallpapers for the home screen. These aren't really busy, mostly gradients and textures. I do agree with a lot of guys on GAF that a very busy home screen wallpaper looks like crap or has that "myspace" effect. I'll be using something very simple, that doesn't overwhelm the home screen, but adds a bit of flair to it, while still looking very clean.
