Beautiful 8BIT Retina Display iPhone Background [Download]

I got bored of my backgrounds on my iPhone so decided to make my own background.

Then I realized that other people would probably enjoy it just as much.

So, spice up your iPhone background with a little 8BIT Network hawtness:

Download it Here!

Send us some pics of you and your device with this new sporty background in the comments!

        hmmm maybe so… need to look up the screen res :-)

          does this help?

          In easy-to-read list form, here’s the skinny on sizes for homescreen wallpapers:

          * 960×854 – this resolution is set aside for the Motorola Droid.
          * 960×800 – this works for the Incredible, the Nexus One, the Desire, the Acer Liquid, and the EVO 4G
          * 640×480 – everything else. All the first and second generation HTC products, Motorola offerings (except the Droid), the Pulse, etc.

          I want one too. And Kyle, at least Chris, Brad and myself don’t have to worry about losing voice mails with our phones.

          Right Jared? :)

    Wondering if you did anything extra special for the “retina” display or is that just an SEO friendly title?

    • September 2, 2010 at #

      well I did it as a retina display meaning it’s 960×460 or whatever.. the other phones are half the size… but this will still look fine on those.. the other way around would look poopie

    This is AWESOME!
    Would you be willing to share the psd file. that we might have a template to create our own versions? It would be awesome to do something like this for my church. If not that’s cool too. At least wanted to ask.

    • September 21, 2010 at #

      we should try to get jared to release it.

    • September 21, 2010 at #

      I totally would.. I’ve actually had a few people ask… but It was a spurr of the moment design and I was 10 minutes from heading out of town for a week and didn’t even save the PSD…. boo.. so if I had it I would definitely release the source..

        Looks like your gonna have to recreate it :)

    Love it guys. Is there a version without the shelf look though? Or maybe just the icon itself?

    Need to wait till the new iPhone to come out also to grab this.
