On the x50mid, the file is called default_stwater.gif. It contains both normal and landscape image.

Wow my Today screen really look sharp now, thanks a lot !


Now, microsoft really screwed up on that one though.
Why the hell would they limit the today background as a 256 color GIF file? 1, a gif is a lot bigger than a JPG, so it takes more memory when loaded. 2, why display 256colors when you can display 65k ?

Anyways, thanks for the tips man !
not a problem. it took me a while to figure out as well (i was using an image browser program and i accidentally tapped /windows - and i found out that folder contains a picture that i used for today screen .. hehe.

this method works great for running SE_VGA and oz_vga as well (when your menu bar and status bar are 1/2 sized and the wallpaper doesn't fit properly on the whole screen).
