Oldsmobile Android Phone Wallpaper

I'm not sure if any of you are as nerdy as I am but I went ahead and made a little Android Wallpaper for my Samsung Epic. It should work on any Android so if you want to use it, its there for the taking.

Not sure if joking or not lol.

Just to be safe, Android is one of the popular Operating Systems for mobile phones now. Its developed by google. Apple has iOS, Google has Android, Windows has, well um... Windows 7 for mobiles. If you have a smartphone, chances are you can edit the background of it to whatever you like. The QR code is for phones that can use the camera as a barcode scanner. You can scan the code with your phone and it will take you to a direct download of the image.

Technology these days...

Thanks, I sort of knew it was some sort of device but that zeroes it in.
It's more than just a robot that looks like a human now I guess.
Another nerd and I did the the page banners, mine are the two best ones.
I bet you could do a lot better.


My phone is really old, looks like a WWII walkie-talkie.
My handle is Blue Leader and my friend Redgoat has the only other phone I can talk to and his handle is Checkmate King 2.

What's the QR digital bar code for ??

How's the website coming along ?? I see you have some Russian?? threads going ??
Glad to see an actual enthusiast owning a site instead of a corporation for profit.

The QR code is for phones that can use the camera as a barcode scanner. You can scan the code with your phone and it will take you to a direct download of the image. Most smart phones now have "an app for that" that can do it.

Most forums actually use that to their advantage.

They list "Visitors Viewing Threads" and 90% of them are spam or spider search bots.
But to the casual on looker they just think those are other Oldsmobile/Chevy/etc enthusiasts.

Very cool! Thank you.

I just downloaded a barcode scanner app (I didn't know the phone could do that) and then used that to download your image. It's now my phone's wallpaper. My friends will think I'm nuts, but they already think that.

Feel free to use that barcode app on things in stores too. Depending on which one you got, you can do some price comparison on things now lol

I just noticed that! I scanned the bar code on a box of Life cereal, and it told me that it was....a box of Life cereal! But it also told me the price in about 10 different stores.
