Zune HD Wallpaper Development Kit

abi-zune-hd-wdk-main.jpg

The Zune Wall Paper Development Kit by ABI will allow you to see what your wallpaper will look like before you put it on your Zune. It helps you layout the design elements for your wallpaper around the Zune HD's clock, icons, and bottom bar on the lock screen. It will even apply the shadow as if you were viewing it on the device. It is an awesome tool for Zune wallpaper designers.

Additionally, we are having a contest to see who can create the best Zune HD wallpaper. The prize is a Zune HD AV Dock. Here is the contest thread and stop into the Zune HD Wallpaper Forum to download and check out the entries.

@Curiouss - They didn't make that program. It's Adobe Photoshop.

Hey, what is that Zune HD sleeve of sorts that appears underneath the blue zune??? Is that an available accessory??

^^Same Question. Where did you get that zune hd sleeve?

That sleeve looks pretty nice.

Top MP3 Players
abi Editor's Choice
  • SanDisk Sansa Clip
    SanDisk Sansa Clip

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

  • Samsung P3
    Samsung P2

    The Samsung P2 was a success and the P3 is a very welcome and substantial update. Samsung has paid close attention to users on P2 issues and made great strides in addressing and improving most of them. The best feature of the P3 is its native video support. Most content you thow at it will playback without conversion on the great looking screen. Stop by the Samsung P3 forums for more details or check out our indepth P3 review.

  • Microsoft Zune 120
    Samsung P2

    Sure, many of us are not big fans of the walled garden, but there are a lot of great things going on with the Zune- sturdy hardware, ultra easy to use user interface, and a media player that is worthy of editor’s choice. The best part of the Zune is the constant firmware and software updates virtually giving you a new device at each major refresh. You can check out the latest Zune 120 & 16 review or stop by our Zune forums for the latest.

  • Cowon iAudio D2
    Cowon iAudio D2

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

  • Phonak Audéo PFE
    Phonak PFE

    Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely. Check out our review.
