I've heard that a phone lock screen can tell you a lot about the person. So, I'm curious.

Right now it’s these mochi I doodled:

[–] seekpie@lemmy.seekpie.nohost.me 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

That looks great!

Is there any way you could upload the file itself so others could also use it?

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 10 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (2 children)

Sure! Here you go :)

.

And here’s the whole image with the rest of my doodles:

Just the “Nature” collection from iOS. I love oceans so it’s mainly oceans & seas from all places. (And occasionally snowy mountains)

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 8 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

So.... What can you tell about these images? I'm also curious

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 10 hours ago

Your nerd quotient.

You monster! Is it a new phone?

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

I want to say yes, but it's probably been over a year now.

[–] JustARegularNerd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 15 hours ago

Like with all my devices, I will try to set a wallpaper that I took, usually from a trip. Each device has its own wallpaper to differentiate them and to remind me of different places I've been.

Here's my lock screen where I took a photo of a small roadside garden while I was in Hervey Bay, Queensland.

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Hi, from the future. I just look up "oled wallpaper" and pick this one 3 years ago.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 1 points 7 hours ago

I use the Samsung rotating lock screen, with pictures set to landscapes, desserts, and animals.

Get about a dozen pics of each that change every 2 weeks or so. About a month ago there were a bunch of pictures of tropical fish that were all labeled "Swan", which was way funnier to me than it should have been.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

My kids. It randomly selects a photo from those containing either of my kids

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 5 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I can't find the actual photo so here's a shitty screenshot of the config...

Man... failed to load media... that's a really shitty screenshot.

Alright I went out and found it.

Just some default wallpaper. I have never really cared about the wallpaper. I just pick anything that doesn’t distract.

I suppose it tells I’m a boring person.

The defect on the lower edge of Jupiter is me blacking out my email; the original image is clean.

Treasure planet??

This is mine. I've been playing Octopatch Traveler recently and I started out playing as H'aanit so I decided to have her as my lock screen. I love the art style of this game.

[–] Sawblade02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 11 hours ago

Just some brass.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 13 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

I change mine a lot, the first is current but everything after that are used regularly

A wallpaper of a wall with the center lighted.

[–] Poem_for_your_sprog@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago
[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago

It's a picture of my daughter being cute (note: she's always cute).

[–] sntx@lemm.ee 10 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Pure plack background with centered off-white text in the Fira Code font saying:

A WISE
PERSON
ONCE SAID
NOTHING

I have created this wallpaper specifically for the scenario that others look at it.

It's a geometric pattern my son and I crayoned onto the white paper table covering while waiting for our pizza.

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago
[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

A picture of me and my girlfriend in our flannel shape blanket hoodies. Can’t post it here because of obvious reasons.

[–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Usually i use images featuring only Amy, but this one was too cute to ignore.

Every time I turn on the screen it’s a different nature pic from my photos. It’s nice to get the memories and there’s no identifying photos of people.

[–] Object@sh.itjust.works 4 points 13 hours ago

I suppose it does say a thing or two about the person

Including their timezone and ISP
