Description
XDA Wallpaper is a small application to create some nice wallpapers for your lock-screen. It adds some metro-styled elements to your images, e.g. an arrow to show how to unlock your phone. The color of these overlay images can be choosen. Also you can add a small shadow effect at the top of the image. It fades to white or black, based on your configured design background-color.
The app is based on an idea I found in the xda-developers forum (http://bit.ly/iezngS).
