Indeed, thanks for posting that. There's only a few things to note about the action:
It doesn't work well with the parallax effect
The level of blur sometimes still reveal app labels, which I cut out in my method because I believe it makes the home screen look too busy
It blurs everything at once, whereas I apply a discretionary blur to the wallpaper and icons separately.
Aaaand for some reason there's a text layer with a giant 'X' in it. I assume this is supposed to be the apple icon, if I had one on PC. :)

Gonna do some now.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm going to be working on a parallax compatible one soon :p

And yes, the X is meant to be an Apple.
 
I've done two different versions for this, they're slightly different. In the first one, the 'dock' gradient bar is still in the background, creating a more 'realistic'. The second one is just like I have been doing before, with the bar removed, so it is just the icons on the background. Let me know which one you prefer, though of course because of the blur there is really minimal difference.

I think that the difference is minimal. I ll keep the second one that you like more. After all, you are the artist :)
Many thanks again.
Cheers from Athens.
 
Parallax no
Slightly blurred
Apple logo yes
Hi, have you got the original version of that wallpaper?

Parallax: Yes
Blur: Yes
Apple Logo: Yes, White

Keeping it simple, no icons in background.
Attached.

Parallax: Yes
Blur: Third Example
Apple logo: one with and one without (if it's not too much if a bother)
Attached in the PREVIOUS post (5 attachments per post limit). I'm not sure on the final resolution for iPhone 4S parallax, so I just went with the pre-GM guide of 200px either side. Let me know if this doesn't work & if possible, the correct resolution.

Parallax: yes

Blur: third example

Apple logo: one with and one without (if it's not too much if a bother)

Thanks again for doing these. :D

Hi!
Yeah, please include the parallax effect. For the blur, maybe a 30% will do.
Thank you!
Attached. Let me know if the blur values need changing, these are much less blurred than the others.

New an improved Apple logo, lol.

Sheza. If you can, do you mind making them a little darker? I tried reducing brightness a bit in snapseed and iPhoto on my phone but it introduces banding. :eek:

Attached - this was odd to do because I wasn't sure exactly what colour to make the logo, and the wallpaper with the bar at the bottom was weird to make Parallax. See how it is.

Parallax:Yes
Blur:No
Apple Logo:Yes,White

Orginal Wallpaper - attached (mountains with stary sky)
Parallax - Yes
Home Screen - Attached
Blur - Gaussian (10 region)
Apple Logo - NO

I see you edited your post but regardless I made it darker. Might have gone overboard. It's there if you want it. It's no bother at all!

I've attached 2 versions because I wasn't sure if you knew how un-blurry Gaussian 10 was. One is 10, the other is around 15.

Yeah, sorry about that. I found a wallpaper I liked more :p:eek:

I posted it there, whenever you get a chance, if that's OK?

Already had your grid, so this was much quicker to make.

I seem to fail at this parallax business, will have to try properly at the weekend... :p

In the meantime could you please do my homescreen with the iOS 7 space wallpaper posted above? Thanks :)

White Apple logo and parallax please.
