Yay to being Irish!!!
my background for today:

KonTiki · 03-17-2006, 11:26 AM

This is my current one and as you see in the avatar I think it goes well with the Pixelistic theme.

Well, I use this one. I love it because people are always like..."The blackberry came out with a windows version?!" I always respond, "Yes....yes they did" with a big smile on my face. I cant take credit for this wallpaper though, I got it from our 8700c zen wallpaper thread, from some nice member.

However, lately I have been thinking of going with my avatar, the gecko!

So how do I get the blackberry .jpg from this thread to my bb? Sorry for the newb question. I tried to email it as an attachment to myself and then open and save it but when I opened the email, the attachment was shown but there wasn't an option to open it or save it. Thanks.

Right click on the image and save to your PC, then e-mail to yourself, when you view the attachment click the trackwheel and save it. Then from the pictures directory you can select it click on the wheel and make it your desktop image.

I went to the Hubble telesope site and downloaded some of the color gas nebulas photos. Pretty colorful and unusual.

I currently use a picture of my cat, Sheba, as the home screen image on my 7105t. I took the picture with my Kodak digital camera and emailed it to myself (my personal email gets sent to my BB). The picture looks great on the 7105t.

Oh - good idea - I'll have to check that out. Thanks!!!

I use pictures that I have taken and just email them to myself. I have gone thru trial and error with some of them to see if I would like them or not, and I have narrowed it down to these so far. By the way, these are in small form, so if someone wants to use them, feel free to, just let me know if ya do so I can get an idea if people like the pictures or not.

try ascendophoto, you can have slideshow of upload pics as screensaver, it is payware tho.

I use the Laughing Man as my background and "Eyes" by Luis Royo as my screen saver.

Hey - "It's Hard Out There for A Pimp."

I've emailed a jpg to myself and I see the attachment to the email on my BB. But when I try to open the attachment, all I get is a screen showing the item with sub-items "Table of Contents" and "Full Content". I click on "retrieve" for the full content but nothing seems to happen - i.e. the photo doesn't open up anywhere. What am I missing? Thanks.

Update: as Emily Latella would say on SNL .. never mind! Guess I need to be more patient, the photos did show up.. eventually.

Excellent

As they say, patience is a virtue
