I can try that, let me see if blackberry supports direct downloading of an image from the browser.

Oops...totally missed that. I didn't see it above the ad banner.

I was able to download an image by switching to the cursor "mode" or whatever it is. Maybe that wasn't necessary, but I did a save image and got it on my memory device. Not sure if the email thing was for tracking or whatever. If it's some sort of violation or something, please post and I'll use the email option.

I'm working on a direct download system now.
It's no violation but the image you're downloading is a thumbnail of the real image so the quality might be distorted. I will let you know when the direct download is setup though.

Here is the OTA link

Thanks

I've tried sending this to my e-mail account and nothing was sent. I had this same problem with the web version from my PC. I checked my Spam filter and nothing came thru that either.

(New) Direct Download

Okay if you don't want to go the whole email route or it doesn't work for you here are the steps.

1. Browse the categories and find a wallpaper you would like and click on it (This should open a new page with stats about the image)
2. Click on the image thumbnail again
3. Click the menu key and select save image
4. Slide the keyboard down (start at the top of the keyboard and swipe your finger downward)
5. Click "Set As Home Screen Image"
6. Click Save

That should be easier for some or the email method still works the same way it has.

No way privacy is my biggest policy. None of the emails are stored anywhere on the site. After you submit the email everything is deleted from the servers. I will never log your emails or personal data anywhere. I can't even see what emails are going through the server it's 100% encrypted and no one has access to them. Also I'm a verified developer with RIM meaning they approved me worthy of creating apps for the Blackberry. So everything I do is safe trust me.

Thanks dmg! What other kind of apps are you going to do and how often will you be adding new images (Hello Christina Aguilera, Amanda Bynes, and Heidi Klum)?

I'm a sick, sick man
