Whats this all about?

Had posted this on HF a while back, but I thought some of you guys would find some usefulness in this too, I am sure I also have posted a video of my desktop here before, but I didn't include a proper tutorial, so here it is!

I bet you have seen some of those awesome desktops and wondered how to get it yourself, I'm here to help.
I'm going to show you how to get that one desktop that everyone will be staring at for minutes!
The only thing you need to do, is go to the links I provide you with, and read the instructions, and thats all, not so hard, right?


This will be our outcome.

Lets get started, do everything in the same order as I posted the links!

Fixing the icon labels after applying the animated background.
1. Right click your desktop.
2. Click ''Personalize''.
3. Go to the ''Desktop Background'' tab below of the personalization window.
4. Click on ''Tile'', and change it to ''Fill'' and click on Apply.
5. If the background has stopped, just set it as background again.


And then?
Any more information on my part is not neccessary, just skim through the instructions on every site that I provided you with, and you should do just fine, enjoy!

Very nice tutorial, I like the tutorial a lot. But I really like those moving bubbles on the backdrop. :grin:

i've seen something similar to this and I like it a lot, might try it out. I had this live wallpaper pre-installed on my HTC Desire.

Nice, I have got a HTC Wildfire.

Not as fast though, but I rooted it, and OC'd it.

Same here, but I really didn't OC'd it as there's no need, at least not for now. Again, this is a great tutorial.

Thanks.

Desire doesn't really need any OC, its fast by itself, but the Wildfire is low end, so thats why its good to OC.
