Flash wallpapers

Flash wallpapers that you can download off this web site will be in a ZIP archive (*.zip file). You can unpack them with standard Windows ZIP support. There are also 3rd party programs such as WinRAR and WinZIP that will allow you unpacking ZIP and other compressed files.

ZIP files contain a SWF file, which is the wallpaper and sometimes a PNG image. That PNG file is loaded by SWF and set as background, under the SWF when displayed. For that to work the PNG has to be 240x320, correctly named (the same name as it came in the ZIP), and in the same folder with the SWF on the phone when SWF is set for wallpaper.

Use Bluetooth to transfer both SWF and PNG files to your phone or use the USB cable. If you use USB save them on memory card, if available, in the pictures folder.

Flash files can't be accessed through the media menu, you have to use File Manager (Menu, Organizer, File Manager, Pictures).

All Sony Ericsson phones open SWF files in their browser. Some models allow full screen in portrait mode, some don't. Though these are not meant to be open in the browser, they are meant to be set as wallpaper. To do so make sure you have the selection above the desired SWF file, press Options, select Use as... and then pick wallpaper.

With some you will get PNG files in a folder. Make sure you put them that way to the phone. The relative path (from the SWF) to images has to be the same in the ZIP file.
