I spent the last 2 weeks working hard on writing a Wallbase client for Android.

Screenshots and a link to download it from the market are on my blog here:
http://timothyjc.blogspot.com/2011/10/wallbase-hd-wallpapers-for-android.html.

The Android Market link is here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.citc.wallbase&feature=search_result

Let me know what you think!










Edit by: AbstractART, big thanks, from Wallbase team.

I think NSFW, would be to much for a phone.
IMO Sketchy and SFW it's the best, are you wankingon the phone?

I like it.

Only I found some cool wallpapers while browsing "random" that I want to use on my PC as well.
Is there anyway of getting a link from that wallpaper somehow?

Yeah - can't add NSFW on Android apps... they have a no porn policy. There is a share option where you can elect to email the Wallbase page link to someone (yourself if you want)...

When searching you get around 30 images and then the same 30 images again. Also it has crashed 2 times now, I get NullPointerException.

Anyway still a great app, one of my favourites!!! Awesome!

It looks really nice.
Can you tell me more about technical stuff? Does it parse the whole page and gets the wallpaper directly?
I wonder how much more traffic it will generate.

Nice idea. The App looks great, unfortunately I don't have a smartphone anymore, so I can't test it.
Is there a way to

  • Crop a wallpaper ?

  • Preview a wallpaper in portrait/landscape mode ?

  • Login and save to / retrieve from favorites ?



I see buttons like "Wallpaper" and "Save", but it is not obvious to me what they do : Do they save a wall on the phone or in the WB account ?

@Yotoon - I'm glad you like it :)

Thanks for promoting it on Facebook too.

I'm using JSoup to parse the relevant bits of html and then I download the thumbnails and wallpapers on separate threads.

I just emailed you the full list of GETs and POSTs I make.

Right now, I'm actually thanking you for making this for Wallbase,
I hope everything will be all'rite with Yotoon so we can keep it and use it(for those who have Android on their mobile phone).
You've got some nice apps in the gallery, keep it up and once again THANK YOU!

@ CrazyGolemI'm guessing you're saving/downloading the walls directly to your phone, I mean it was made for a phone, that would be my logic.
If I'm mistaken Tim, correct me.

  • Turning the phone 90 degrees, I guess(like smartphones switch from Landscape to Portrait)

  • Crop, it should be automatically from the phone.

You can crop a wallpaper, but you have to save to phone first. You can preview in portrait/landscape mode. You cannot login. Wallpaper button sets wallpaper on phone. Save button saves wallpaper on phone.

Just downloaded it, and it rocks!

I love the "Popular" on the main screen, and the infinte loop on the "gridview" (or whatever its called). The UI is excellent!. Already rated five stars in the Android Market, and left a first comment on it.

Out of curiosity, why did you this app? I mean, what were your motivations?


Edit: OMG i just found out you made Pocket for Android too! You rock.
