We all know that the PlayBook automatically enlarges an image when you want to set as your wallpaper. The fix is to have the image be 1024x1024 pixels. However how many pictures do you really have in the shape of a square?

So to get everything that you want showing (both in portrait and in landscape) you need to have your desired content fit in a 600x600 box. That way the picture of your child for example will always be showing no matter in what direction you hold it.

Here are some examples that you guys are welcomed to try out.

Americana


As you can see I wanted the flag to be in the center.

So what do you do if you want one? Simply post here! (I know there is a wallpaper forum but I know that PlayBook owners visit this more often).
So just fill out this form in a new post. Again, these are free, just another way to give back to CrackBerry

Here it is, let me know if you're ok with it once it's on your PlayBook.
dkingsf, I'm only making stuff for BlackBerry.

[SmakBerry]

This is so nice of you to do for everyone.

[FTWrath]

Can you do one exactly the same way but for the lightning, please?

Can you be a little more specific please, what do you mean by the lightning?

[FTWrath]

sorry, tampa bay lightning, its also a hockey team.

I love what you did for Oilfan. It looks sweet. If it's not too much trouble, I would love one for the Toronto Blue Jays.

I attached a couple of pics just as ideas. You obviously have an eye for this so feel free to use whatever you feel looks good. I'd also like a darker and blue tone.

Thanks. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

You said exactly the same as the previous one so all I did was change the logo, let me know if that's ok.

[Oilfan_2009]

Man, you are my hero! it looks sooo slick! It cuts off the grey borders in Landscape but looks awesome! Thanks again for this!

Can I get something for the LA Lakers basketball team? That would be awesome.

Thanks in advance!

[Kyle27]

Those look amazing! Thanks so much for doing this!

I have been searching everywhere, but can't seem to find any PlayBook wallpapers with the actual BlackBerry logo. Do you think you could throw one together for me? It would be greatly appreciated. I would prefer a black background with the BlackBerry logo, and maybe "BlackBerry PlayBook" written underneath in the same fancy-looking font that comes up when the PlayBook is booting up.

Also, if it's not a big deal, I'd love to have one of the hockey wallpapers you made earlier, but with the Vancouver Canucks logo instead! Those look amazing!

Thanks again for everything!

Here it is! I think this one would look best as a Portrait wallpaper.



Remember all of these might look a little off as square images but they turn out better as wallpapers on the PlayBook.

I think your username says it all. BLACKBERRY PIMP!!!

Thanks for the sweet wallpaper. It looks amazing. If you're not in some type of graphic design field, you should be.

Cheers.

Thank you for taking your time to do something like this! I greatly appreciate it.

Another alternative to doing this, is finding an iPad wallpaper that you like. (Sadly, there are no pictures like the one I want) They actually work out quite well as PlayBook wallpapers.
