Playstation Vita wallpaper thread | Customizing dat OLED screen

I would absolutely love Trevor's template adding to the side of the Bane, Batman, Spiderman, Wolverine, Iron Man, Venom and Deadpool backgrounds from the previous page..

I lack the mad skills to do it myself (don't even know where to start and don't own Photoshop!) but it seems like a good idea to me.
 
Those wallpapers are absolutely stunning, magicaltrevor. I mean, those are beautiful.

There is so much potential in customizing the home screen of the Vita and you've really done an awesome job in doing so. Now, Sony just needs to give up tools to make out own "bubbles" and themes. Completely customize them in everyway.

Amazing job!

OK, following on from my post above about wanting to see someone merge Trevor's theme with the superheroes one before, I've had a go at it myself.

It doesn't look as professional as Trevor's, largely because I don't really know what I'm doing, and the side bar isn't transparent, but other than that I think everything is how it should be. Or roughly, anyway. It does what I wanted to do with it anyway but others can feel free to use this if they want to.

DISCLAIMER: HUGE thanks and obvious credit to magicaltrevor and teddywestside for uploading the original hero images and side bar theme to the thread. I hope you don't mind me using your stuff, but if you do just drop me a PM.

Oh my fucking god, THANK YOU

EDIT: Re-uploaded again to grab from Vita.

Appreciate the Vita friendly images. Is it me though or does the quality of the images get downgraded once they have been set as a background?

Shame that as they are very nicely done!

Trevor, those are greats. Thanks for the free theme. My only complaint is the inclusion of the PSN logo on PSN's wallpapers :p

Trevor those are so good you wonder why the OS doesn't have the left side detail built in.

Makes me wonder what future iterations of the OS we'll see on the Vita.
 
Hey, let me sort through all my pictures and music by month! (I uploaded them all THIS month >=/ )

Folders are needed. Also a better sorting method. For example, holding down the icon you want moved and then press L/R to scroll page up and down.

Yes. And hold and move an entire screen at once.

This might sound stupid but how do I enlarge them?

If you're talking about the ones I posted (inside the quote box), click on them to see them in their actual size. You can click and drag a little bit to make them stay at original size until you click again. Scroll vertically, or hold down with the click wheel to look around. If you just want to save the image, copying/saving it with right-click or saving it on your Vita should get it at its original size anyway.

Putting images in quotes resizes them down, which is kind of necessary when posting huge pictures. It should really be made mandatory for all posts in here. I'm tired of trying to read posts while a page is loading, and have huge images push my screen all the way down. Also, if you have to quote someone who posted a bunch of images that makes a vertical stack a couple feet tall, just quote a few of the images, specifically the ones you're talking about.

I've tweaked magicaltrevor's wallpapers slightly. He made a fantastic design but I prefer the white bar on the left to be smaller and more see-through. I've done that to all the abstract wallpapers and uploaded them in case anyone else wants to use them. If there's a problem with doing that I'll remove them.

example:

The rest of the wallpapers are in a gallery here
 
I've created some more wallpapers for our PS Vita's.
There are two themes: Abstract and Nature.

And best of all: I've included a Template-file (.PSD / Photoshop) in the package.
I'd love to see what other designers do with my work.

Here we go...

The Abstract Pack:

The Nature Pack:

Downloads:
- Abstract Pack: With template / Without Template
- Nature Pack: With template / Without Template
We need one of these with space imagery.
 
This thread is incredible, thank you to all the contributors.

Edit: Agreed ^ Those are beautiful templates indeed, but space imagery and/or cityscapes usually populate my device backgrounds.

Oh god, I am in hell. This is an OCDs nightmare! Do I put the wallpapers in alphabetical order? Where do games go that are free for the Vita? Do full games only mean retail or PSN games as well? Lol.

Here is mine :)

I Love Garbage pail kids. I made this so I could "Peel off a sticker" every time I loaded my Vita.

This is awesome. I've been a fan of the GPKs for a long time, still got some first edition stickers around somewhere. Wondered how long till someone put some mirrored text in the corner. Nice work, adding to lock screen now. =D
 
Really want one of those mirrors edge wallpapers, but for some reason I can't save it.
I usually just right click save, but for some reason I can't?
 
Here you go, buddy.


The seventh wallpaper has 4 extra pixels vertically, because it came out to exactly 960x540. I added 4 black lines because the status bar at the top of the Vita would obscure it anyway, but you can just cut that part off if you want.

Awesome ty.

and I didn't get any save errors for the other 2 guys asking

dang i can't save any of these photos on the vita itself. i get error message C2-13242-2. anyone run into this problem?

I checked myself on my Vita, and the ones that gave me an error were: 1, 4, 5, 9, 13, 15, 16, and 17. I reuploaded the images and linked them and it appeared to work for me, so give them a try now.

As for the right-clicking, which I take as you being on a computer instead, does the option to Save Image As not appear? If it doesn't, try copying the image and pasting it in Paint to save it. If there's no Copy either, just grab a screen of the expanded image.

While I'm at it, here are the folders for all the wallpapers I made so far, in Grid viewing mode by default. Don't mind the lack of a preview on certain ones, they should become visible in Full viewing mode.
