How to Change the Wallpaper on the iPhone 3GS

Customizing the wallpaper on an iPhone 3GS is easy

Changing the wallpaper on an iPhone 3GS is simple. The iPhone comes with several wallpaper options installed, or you can use a personal photo from your iPhone's library.

Instructions

1. From the iPhone's main menu, select "Settings," then "Wallpaper."

2. Select "Wallpaper" to use one of the pictures that came pre-installed on your iPhone.

3. Select "Camera Roll" to use a photo from your iPhone picture library.

4. Scroll to the desired image and select it by pushing on it. This will bring up the "Wallpaper Preview" using the selected image.

5. Click "Set" to apply one of the pre-installed wallpapers.

6. Use your fingers to adjust a personalized photo from your iPhone picture album. Slide your fingers apart to zoom in on an image, or hold your finger down on the image to move it up or down. Click "Set" to apply the picture as your wallpaper.

Tips & Warnings

• As a shortcut, when browsing through the photo library on your iPhone 3GS, you can select an image to use as wallpaper by clicking on the square at the bottom left-hand corner of the screen and selecting "Use as Wallpaper." If you choose to use a photo from your iPhone picture album, the standard size will be slightly smaller than the screen size. Using your fingers to adjust the size of the image ensures that the picture covers the entire screen.

• Be careful when using third-party applications for wallpapers. These can result in monthly charges on your phone bill that are difficult to remove.
