With version 1.1.11 I’ve brought it up to 27 revisions since the original wallpaper by issuing another update (This follows from my previous updates in this post)
Whats new?
I have now added a changelog to the application, viewable by clicking on the version number, so now there is no mystery to what the update contains!
Added changelog
Added reset to defaults button
Moved reaction to battery level to a new submenu ‘Reactions’, more coming soon!
Changed default value of maximum particles to 100 to make application more responsive to people who like spamming the screen
Renamed ‘Static background’ to ‘Static foreground’ to more accurately reflect it’s purpose. This has also been moved to the particle settings menu and changed it’s default value to true to improve performance.
Video
I am still planning on posting a video soon (when I get some free time) to demonstrate the app as it has improved significantly since the firstvideo.

I have issued a MASSIVE update for my Nexus Revamped Live Wallpaper Pro (This follows from my previous updates in this post)
Images
The gallery below first shows the options avaliable, some examples, and then some examples used with launcherpro. Click on each image to see a larger version, as these images are cropped.
I will post a video soon to demonstrate the app as it has improved significantly since the first video I have made.
New Features
This version includes some very exciting and highly demanded features:
Custom particle colors: Use a color wheel to select custom colors for each of the particles
Performance options: You can now adjust the desired FPS (frames per second) of the live wallpaper, this means that you can save battery life and increase responsiveness of your home screen. To find the optimum FPS I recommend that you try reducing the frame-rate until the point where you start to notice some jittering then increase it slightly.
Custom background images: Select a custom image to be used for the background.
Speed Deviation: You can now set how much the speed will deviate on a per-particle basis. A low setting will mean all particles travel at similar speeds whereas a high setting will mean there is a large amount of variance in speed (particles will overtake each other)
Reaction to battery level: Selecting this will cause the particles speed to represent the battery life of your phone. The less power your phone has the slower the particles will move.
Seekbar settings: Many of the settings (Speed, Speed Deviation, Tail length, FPS, and Saturation) which previously had a list to choose the values have been replaced with seekbar to allow improved customisation
New themes: please email me with more theme requests
Many bug fixes: Especially one that stopped custom background from working when rebooting the phone (reset settings to defaults), this was because the SD card isn’t ready when the live wallpaper starts.
I have also also pushed most of the updates down to the free version of this application, but some options are left out to reward the paying customers (custom background images, and custom particle colors)

Following the success of my first live wallpaper (Nexus Revamped Pro) I have created another. The wallpaper bares similarity to the windows screensaver mystify but much more ascetically pleasing.
Features
Background color
Polygon color or cycle through a range of colors
Line thickness
Number of apexes
Number of trails
Speed of movement
Performance settings, anti-aliasing and Frames per second (FPS)
More to come soon, feel free to request something!
Following the update of nexus revamped pro, I have upgraded the free edition! This upgrade brings many improvements over the last version and should have a considerable performance increase, therefore less lagging and better battery life.

Having recieved my Nexus one from google, I felt compelled to write a Live Wallpaper app because of how sexy they look. So I got playing around and ended up writing a wallpaper from scratch that is designed to be similar to the Nexus Live Wallpaper, but with improved efficiency and lots of customisability.
I have created a pro version of the application which features more options and extra backgrounds and themes, which is available for a small fee which will help support development.
Video
Please note that this is a video taken in an emulator using screen recording software, so it is less responsive and more stuttery than when run on an actual phone.
