[Wallpapers] Free Wallpapers for WP7 - Regular and Transparent Galleries

I cooked up some wallpapers for WP7 and WP8+ lock screen and wanted to share them.

There are two sections now to choose from. Regular and Transparent. Each have their own instructions so I have included it all.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Regular Wallpapers: http://www.animevortex.net/blog/thesaint/windows-phone-7-wallpaper-gallery

Instructions: Simply save them to your phone by viewing the page from your phone or from your PC using zune sync or email, as you would do any other normal wallpapers.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Transparent Wallpapers: http://www.animevortex.net/blog/thesaint/general/free-transparent-wallpapers-for-windows-phone-7-wp7 (WP7 only!)

Instructions: To set one as your wallpaper you must save the image to your PC. Send your an email from your PC to your cellphone with the image attached. Once the email/attachment has been loaded, click to open the attachment. Touch and hold the screen until the menu pops up. Set as your wallpaper and your ready to go!

Note: Mango update and newer (including WP8+) do(es) not support transparent wallpapers.

--------------------------------------------------------------

I can't always guarantee that I can come through with every request but I will try when I can Most of the wallpapers were actually sponsored by donations so it helped. The rest I have to dabble with on my free time.

Update 04/22/2011 - Ok guys, biggest update yet! Collection had more than doubled with the additional of about 32 new anime-based wallpapers as well as more video game related.

Update 04/27/2011 - Thanks to the feature suggestion made by Big D5 (wpcentral), I have reworked it so that you can share straight to your phone from the gallery (once you click on an image and it pops up, you can press and hold the mid-section of the image and choose "share"). Now you view the gallery from your phone and even email to yourself as an attachment while your at it. Note: obviously you don't want to choose "save image" as doing this will convert it causing it to lose it's transparent properties.

Update 05/07/2011 - I added a regular gallery of non-transparent images, as well as added more images in both galleries.

Update 09/09/2011 - Added the new collection of Conan Wallpapers (non-trans), also available in their own gallery here with collection zip: Conan Wallpaper Collection for WP7

I also updated the post as the special forces (Battlefield) wallpaper wasn't showing. It's there now. I'll try to add more in the future if work allows and will probably add it to this post.

Thanks for the make.
I have a question, after I applied, the tranparent part is black. Only when I start to slide it shows the tile home. Is this normal?

Yes it only works when you start to move your finger on the slide because WP7 blacks out the home screen when the lock screen is fully dropped. The second you start to slide up or down the home screen should appear in the BG.

If I could make a suggestion for possible wallpapers....I would say go old-school games like mario, yoshi or pokemon! Those would be awesome!
