App Description

Want imagery that will show off the incredible resolving power and dazzling color of your apple device? Want to make stunning wallpaper for it?

Well, then, you've come to the right place. The photos here are optimized for these devices, and this app can turn them into perfect wallpaper for Home and Lock Screens.

An exclusive feature of all Pixels By Paul apps is their ability to size wallpaper to fit within wallpaper safe areas. Safe areas are the central areas in the Lock and Home Screens that are not blocked by the status bar, date/time bar, unlock slider, and dock. With our apps, you can fit pictures to safe areas while keeping their original aspect (the ratio of height to width is maintained), or you can stretch or squeeze them to completely fill the safe areas.

Stretched images have a reflection at the bottom, so that they fade smoothly behind the bottom controls. You can also wrap images, as in a gallery wrap print. Wrapped images keep their aspect ratio (remain un-stretched), but any surrounding black bars (used to keep the image in the safe area) are filled in with reflections of the image.

You can make such safe area wallpapers from the pictures in this app, and you can do this with your own pictures.

NEW: You can now send physical postcards from within this app to anyone anywhere in the world*. The picture you choose (from this app or from your own Photos library) will be on the front of the postcard. You enter a message and recipient address, and the postcard is printed and mailed.

This app contains 196 premium images from Boulder, Colorado and nearby areas. All the seasons are represented in their full glory: spring cherry blossom trails, summer pond reflections, fall's majesty reflected in Walden Ponds, and fresh winter snow on the Boulder Flatirons. You will also see photos of the Boulder Colorado University (CU) Campus, of Leyden Colorado, Rocky Mountain National Park, and local wildlife. Information about Boulder and about each photo is included.

This app is fully optimized for the new Retina iPad and the new iPhone 5. All graphical elements are at full Retina iPad resolution, and the app takes full advantage of the enlarged iPhone 5 screen size.

This app can entertain in several ways. It's fun to flip through its 4-up browsing screens, and to watch 4-up or 1-up slideshows. Try stretching the images to fill their quadrant (4-up) or screen (1-up), both in portrait and in landscape orientation. And do search through to find and make your favorite wallpaper images.

This app requires no internet connection* to run. Everything you need is included inside this application. And it's a universal app! Run it on your iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, all for one low price.

You can order large prints of these photos, unmounted or mounted, at discounted prices.

A pictorial help file is included, with usage tips and disclosure of hidden features.

This app requires iOS 4.3 or higher.
