But, it can be a core to change the looks of the iPhoneOS to your likings, especially if you want to change the background of the iPhone&#8217;s springboard (check out the end of this article for that).<br \/>\nThe first, and definately most easy thing you can do to change your iPhone&#8217;s look is to change the background.<br \/>\nThis can be done in two ways:<br \/>\n1 Via the settings menu:<br \/>\nOpen the settings app, and choose &#8220;wallpaper&#8221;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Changing the iphone background\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/imgs\/iphone1.jpg\" alt=\"iphone1 Changing your iPhones background\" width=\"224\" height=\"336\" \/><br \/>\nThis will bring you to an overview of all the images that are available on your iPhone. This means both the wallpaper collection of your iPhone as the photo&#8217;s you shot with your iPhone, the images you synced on to your iPhone, or the ones you saved from the web or email.<br \/>\nSelect the image you want to use. This will bring you to the &#8220;Move and Scale&#8221; interface. Here you can zoom in on your picture to crop a part out of it, or to make it fit better. You can use both fingers to move and zoom, just like you&#8217;re used to on your iPhone. Adjust your picture until you like it, then tap &#8220;Set&#8221;, or &#8220;Cancel&#8221; if you want to select another picture.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Changing the iphone background\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/imgs\/iphone2.jpg\" alt=\"iphone2 Changing your iPhones background\" width=\"224\" height=\"336\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">2 Via the Photos app:<br \/>\nOpen the Photos app, and select the picture you would like to use from your collection.<br \/>\nTap the outside square icon on the lower left of your picture, and select &#8220;Use as Wallpaper&#8221;.<br \/>\nThis will bring you back in the &#8220;Move and Scale&#8221; interface, where you can adjust your picture until you like it, then tap &#8220;Set Wallpaper&#8221;, or &#8220;Cancel&#8221; if you want to select another picture.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Changing the iphone background\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/imgs\/iphone3.jpg\" alt=\"iphone3 Changing your iPhones background\" width=\"224\" height=\"336\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This will result in your chosen picture to be on the background of your iPhone&#8217;s lock screen.<br \/>\nUsing this method, your wallpaper will only be visible when your iPhone is locked.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Changing the iphone background\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/imgs\/iphone4.jpg\" alt=\"iphone4 Changing your iPhones background\" width=\"224\" height=\"336\" \/><br \/>\nIf you also want to set a background image on your iPhone&#8217;s springboard (that is what the thing is called where you can choose and start your applications), you will need to follow these guidelines: <a title=\"changing your iphones springboard background with winterboard\" href=\"http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-springboard-background-with-winterboard\" >Changing your iPhone&#8217;s springboard background.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- Begin SexyBookmarks Menu Code --><\/p>\n<div class=\"sexy-bookmarks sexy-bookmarks-expand sexy-bookmarks-bg-sexy\">\n<ul class=\"socials\">\n<li class=\"sexy-delicious\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/del.icio.us\/post?url=http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-background\/&amp;title=Changing+your+iPhone%27s+background\" rel=\"\" class=\"external\" title=\"Share this on del.icio.us\">Share this on del.icio.us<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li class=\"sexy-digg\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/digg.com\/submit?phase=2&amp;url=http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-background\/&amp;title=Changing+your+iPhone%27s+background\" rel=\"\" class=\"external\" title=\"Digg this!\">Digg this!<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li class=\"sexy-reddit\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?url=http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-background\/&amp;title=Changing+your+iPhone%27s+background\" rel=\"\" class=\"external\" title=\"Share this on Reddit\">Share this on Reddit<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li class=\"sexy-yahoobuzz\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/buzz.yahoo.com\/submit\/?submitUrl=http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-background\/&amp;submitHeadline=Changing+your+iPhone%27s+background&amp;submitSummary=The%20iPhone%20is%20a%20great%20little%20machine%2C%20no%20doubt%20about%20that.%20But%2C%20it%20can%20be%20a%20core%20to%20change%20the%20looks%20of%20the%20iPhoneOS%20to%20your%20likings%2C%20especially%20if%20you%20want%20to%20change%20the%20background%20of%20the%20iPhone%27s%20springboard%20%28check%20out%20the%20end%20of%20this%20article%20for%20that%29.%0D%0AThe%20first%2C%20and%20definately%20most%20easy%20thing%20y&amp;submitCategory=science&amp;submitAssetType=text\" rel=\"\" class=\"external\" title=\"Buzz up!\">Buzz up!<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li class=\"sexy-stumbleupon\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stumbleupon.com\/submit?url=http:\/\/www.icantinternet.org\/2010\/01\/changing-your-iphones-background\/&amp;title=Changing+your+iPhone%27s+background\" rel=\"\" class=\"external\" title=\"Stumble upon something good?
