That looks great...! :) Yeah, it's a bit fiddly the way the screen skips.

Ok... based on the [mention]R-Tape[/mention] idea, this thread and using the random function of the [mention]kolbeck[/mention] API, I created a new option in the Zx App to make wallpapers.
Please, it is yet a basic function.

Added "Wallpapers" menu.
When you tap this option, a screen will be opened with a join of a Running Screen and Loading screen. It´s totally random for now. Use back button of your device, then enter again to a new Wallpaper. Take a screenshot of your phone´s screen to use it as wallpaper.

PS: will be available in the "48K Issue 4A" version of the App. It was uploaded recently

Thanks! As I said in the other thread, it's a really interesting feature!

First attempt.

How do we feel about the screens including non-pixel art? E.g. bits of an inlay.

This one is nice because you don't know where an image ends and start another.

Someone asked in El Mundo del Spectrum for animated wallpapers... sounds cool!

How could they be made? Is it possible? Any ideas?

No idea...we must see if is possible an animated wallpaper.
Gif's can be animated but I don't know if they will work as wallpaper.

The app is great and so are the custom-made ones. The Scuba Dive one is beautifully made.

I'm hoping to see Laser Squad, but I can see how some games have maps better suited for vertical displays.

We've had screen$ screensavers for many years and most recently .RZX screensavers. Maybe the same can be done at some point for mobile devices.

Here's my attempt. Difficult to fit in a vertical display:
