The only option for me so far, was to upload the images (128x128 px) to my personal websites root and simply add the adress including the image-file to my bookmarks in the phones memory. Just download and have fun...though it can get quite cost intensive at times icon_grin.gif

Yeahh zorni is right. the only possibility is to download wallpaper over MMS or WAP. I guess copyright issues are the reasons. Otherwise nobody would create new wallpapers...

Or you could resize the picture to

176x132 for wallpaper
176x208 for boot picture
operator logo is 97x25

then just copy the file to your phone by some means and use it as wallpaper - full screen

I have tried this method, and all I get when the file downloads is "Unable to open file" even tho the file is correct and it says its the full file size icon_cry.gif Can you be more specific in your method?

Many thanx

I phoned up Nokia the other day, and it's actually true, the ONLY way to get new grafix onto UR 3300 is to get a mate (or company?) to send you an MMS containing the image. Either that, or download one URself, so therefore there's no reason that Zorni's method of uploading 2 UR own page and gettin them from there shouldn't work

Hope this helps!! icon_smile.gif

Hi HeIlRaiser!

Well, it´s actually quite simple. All u need is a free webspace somewhere. Then u just upload the image ( i usually resize my images to 128x128 pixels) say e.g. "image1.jpg" to the root of the server where my index.html is stored. Then i create a bookmark in the "services" menu, called e.g. "zorni´s downloads" poiting to the exact adress of the file, which in my case would be "http://berg.heim.at/almwiesen/411994/pn031.jpg" for one of my favourite pics.

U can try to download that pic by entering my link as a bookmark in your phone... icon_smile.gif

Keep trying!

I've found the way! At least until the PC suite is released, try this.

Similar to Zorni's method, but simply download your own personal webserver! U can get the images straight off your computer then! I'm using something called Sambar and i've built a WAP page with a crap-load of wallpapers up there (all 120x* or *x120). all 4 free, primarily coz my friend wanted some wallpapers for her phone, and I couldn't afford the MMC's. 213.177.252.76/index.wml if you want any of them, free 2 download, but watch your call length / data counter!

If you wanna do the same, search for Sambar web server download in Google, and search for WML tutorial as well, that should get U started. One thing 2 note, to get at the image, just direct the <A> tag to the name of the file <a href="filename.filext">. Took me ages to work that out!!!

Have fun!
