IOS 7 wallpaper resizing will not shrink photo to fit screen...

After update, wallpaper stretchs larger than image. Unable to resize smaller to fit screen. My photo only measures 24k @ 261x231 and is HUGE; bigger than the screen can accommodatem (shrink). Cannot resize smaller to fit screen. Any ideas/suggestions? I have tried resizing my photo (smaller crop in size and dimensions) and photos render too large for screen. Cannot resize smaller to fit. I know I am repeating myself. Just to be clear. Am I doing something incorrectly in IOS 7? Any ideas/suggestions or similar problems solving input would be appreciated.

Commenting here and complaining publically does no good whatsoever.


Join our ranks and complain DIRECTLY to Apple as many of us have done.


Then come back here and tell us you've done it.


Otherwise, your whining falls on deaf ears!

After reading and re-reading some of these discussion threads, and then looking at my iPad wallpaper, I am really aggravated this morning. I dont want to take the time for a work-around and I want my device to work as it did with iOS 6. Granted, iOS 7 is a total revamp, but I find it very difficult to allow that as an excuse any longer.


I love reading all the work-arounds suggested here and continue to think of Job's intentions....to keep it simple and to create a great user experience. APPLE, Y'ALL ARE LOSING IT, IF NOT ALREADY HAVE LOST IT.

Raza, nice try with the video explanation. My point (and the point of many others in here) is that jumping through all these hoops to create a jerry-rigged amateurish workaround IS THE ESSENCE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS completely worked fine before for EVERYONE IPHONE AND IPAD before ios7. Now, we're just all twisting and turning and screenshotting and reformatting and some people are buying instasize apps to fix the problem. And I can't say what I'm really thinking or Apple will pull the plug on my posts like they did before. Complain to apple using the feedback link listed before....just scroll back on this thread a page or two and you'll find it.
