Hey Guys,

I am kind of Anal when it comes to home screen design. Since iOS 7 it seems so tough to find a nice background.

Wallpapers of landscapes look good/great on lock screen but are usually too busy for home screen with icons.

What have you guys found that works for you, I was thinking a beautiful landscape on the lock screen and then blur that scene on the home screen...... I have also tried gradient which look good as well.

iOS has made this very tough. Just curious what you guys are using.

I find the stock wallpapers looking good even on the 4S' screen. I think the best wallpaper ever, that has looked good with every iOS version is this one.

iOS 5 had the best wallpapers IMO.

I happen to be a wallpaper addict. I get mine from Zedge. Love being able to change my wallpaper, and yes, very many of them, if not the majority, are landscape. Otherwise they're family pictures.
