Photoshop clipping path can be used for different applications ranging from Animations to Gadgets. Wonder how with the gadgets! I too did when I found that the answer to my problem would be the often used clipping paths service.
If you notice the Nokia n series, you will find that the main theme is full screen but if new wallpaper is being set on the present theme, it shrinks to mid leaving the top and the bottom portion with the old wallpaper or old theme.
Nokia n series do not have a condition within the mobile to change the wallpapers to fit the whole screen. I often thought how to get my preferred image on full screen. I searched through a couple of articles to find a solution to this problem. At last I was able to figure an editor which could offer a condition to change the theme. Carbide supplys a theme editor which can be used to edit the themes for Nokia handsets.
Carbide is software that has a front end similar to an editor which provides all tools and visual appearance that helps you fix your favorite wallpaper to a full screen on your Nokia n series.
Still wondering how does photoshop clipping paths come here? Each screen of your handset can be customized to choose wallpaper and icons of your choice. When you choose wallpaper it has to be set to the desired width that matches your screen dimensions. You can make it easy through Photoshop. Also each icon on the screen needs to be cut according to the dimensions and need to be clipped to fit a non box coordinate system, this can be done by clipping the image and then utilizing a masked image onto it. These images can then be combined to give a whole icon appearance.
You can also clip your images to match the images on the wallpaper backgrounds. If you are badly creative at your Photoshop skills then you can apply various photo editing techniques to bring best appearance and visual appeal to your wallpapers.
You can find the various resources that describe how carbide works; most of them can be obtained through Symbian forums. I think till Nokia finds some solution to its wallpaper problem, your Photoshop and image clipping path service can help you fix the problems without compromising your options.
If you are bad at Photoshop you can learn it through books on Photoshop and through different forums that can provide you a fast and easy introduction, not including much information and that you can use for minute modifications and manipulations.
