A couple suggestions for people doing this:

1) Use a black background. This will help it look more seamless since there's a border bracketing your image.
2) Do not use color gradients. The display looks to be 256 colors, so gradients look odd.

Edit: I think the resolution is closer to 1920x1080. I'll double check today.

I wanted to find the right wallpaper and this is what I chose. Mostly because it's the same face I make every time I start the car.

A couple others I'm keeping on the SD card in my car as well.

1920x1080 shots fill the screen perfectly. My post with Awesome Face is 1920x.

Here's a quick modification of my file. Had to "repaint" my car to SWP. Looks better on Navi screen than on the forum. Take a pic of your Navi screen if you use the image.

Is that just a wallpaper? Or can it be set like a screensaver.
