Playstation Vita wallpaper thread | Customizing dat OLED screen

Did some tests with this wonderful little LCD sub-sampling resize plugin for Paint.net.
http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/7775-lcd-subsampling-resize-using-sublcd-algorithm/

It basically does same thing to images what clear type does for fonts. (Gives sharper looking image by using the knowledge how 'sub-pixels/colours' on LCD are arranged.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClearType

Currently this plugin reduces image size to half horizontally to get the effect.
So what I did with these test images is scaled images first to 1920x544 and then scaled them to 960x544 either using normal scaler or this one..

Images should NOT be JPG compressed as it reduces the effect. (JPG does not compress color information in full resolution.)

Normal first and then the lcd-subsampled.

So, basic idea is to get that nice little Vita screen to look even better.. ;)

Wow, that is a really nice difference, very sharp looking. Good to know that this effect also works on the Vita. Should work very well for B/W line-art as well.

Hi there. Back again with some new wallpapers for your Vitas...

They’re kind of in the same style as the old ones, though they still feel fresh.

ps_vita_wallpaper_pack_4_by_caemgen.jpg


I’ve been messing with a variety of shapes and ended up using this kind of arrow-like shape. The category-labels are placed a bit different this time around, so that you have more room for your apps and games.

Feel free to use and/or change these up with your own backgrounds/labels.

Download (with or without Photoshop-template) here.
First set of category wallpapers that really caught my eye! Absolutely brilliant and i am putting them on my vita right now.

Bloody amazing.

magicaltrevor is working at Studio Liverpool now? Not surprised that they got interested in you, their games always had interesting UI.

Congrats. What do you do currently? I appreciate you might not be able to tell us about what you're going to be doing.

Thanks.

I'm a graphic/interface-designer, currently, specialized in all things web-related and video(animation).

Can't say much about what I'll be doing at Evo though, but it's certainly different from what I do now. Photoshop is still involved though. ;-)

I guess that you're going to be a texture artist or something. Looking forward to seeing your work. :D
 
I'd like to make a request for you wallpaper experts. Could you guys make a Hokuto no ken/Jo Jo/ or DMC 3/4 wallpaper? I've scoured the net and I can't find anything on either of these series. Thanks dudes.

Simple: Vita supports transparencies with wallpapers.
To clarify: It only supports transparency off/on. So you can't make one part darker than another for example.

Also the intersection between the dynamic background and the overlay often looks bad.

This.

That's why I don't use it at all. I hate jaggies.

EDIT: OOPS, sorry for the double post.

Ahh balls, just formatted my Vita and lost all my wallpapers. I had all the ones I used as wallpaper backed up, but not the one I was using as a lock screen.

Been through the thread and looks like it's not up anymore :(
Don't suppose anyone still has it? It was basically this artwork, on a green background:

If anyone has played Madden 13, there are pics during the loading screens of some CLEEEAN looking photos of Joe Montana and other players.

has anyone created any backgrounds consisting of NFL Teams or players?
 
Thanks for the Hokuo no Ken.

Any chance on anyone working on Bacanno! wallpaper?

A Baccano! PS VITA and PS3 theme would be most welcomed.
