Spider-Man wallpaper

[charred turret]

Please make this for depth effect.

[raw marsh]

@charred turret, @merry berry What does that mean by 'depth effect' ?

[merry berry]

This is for the clock on the lock screen, so the object on the photo goes behind it if you know what I mean 😀

[raw marsh]

Umm you mean like the clock goes behind the object right ?

Like this one ?

[merry berry]

Ah sorry yeah, the clock goes behind the object. I'm at work and didn't read what I typed lol

[merry berry]

Yep

[raw marsh]

But idk how does that work

What do I have to do ?

[merry berry]

I believe it has to be at a fixed resolution in order for it to engage. Haven't researched this that deep yet so I'm not exactly sure what's triggering it.

[raw marsh]

It's alright. I'll search on the internet. I'll see what can I do..

[merry berry]

Will do some research on this today and report back.

[merry berry]

Yeah I think the trick is in the resolution and that's it. Could be DPI too.

[raw marsh]

Yeah I think so. Alright, I got it. Thanks for the information 😇 👍

@charred turret Can I get your phone model please ?

[raw marsh]

I need to know your phone model to make sure the wallpaper is gonna fit properly @charred turret

[charred turret]

Check my roles

[charred turret]

@raw marsh 13

[raw marsh]

Ahh didn't check it sorry.. 😁

@charred turret You may check if it fits properly on your device. Let us know if there's any problems..

[raw marsh]

Doesn't it show the depth effect option ?

[charred turret]

No

[raw marsh]

Just give me some more time. I'm in scl rn. I'll check it for sure...

[raw marsh]

@charred turret Could you check this one ?

[raw marsh]

No wayyy

[charred turret]

😭

[raw marsh]

I haven't created a depth effect wallpaper before. I'll look into more and see what I can do...

[charred turret]

Ok, thanks for trying.

[raw marsh]

@merry berry I think I need help..

[raw marsh]

My pleasure.. 👍

[merry berry]

Was a bit busy yesterday, will look into it asap!

[loud sparrow]

Did you create a depth map and background depth?

And the subject must be just a bit to the Center

[raw marsh]

I think no. I didn't do any one those things. So what I just did is I just created a transparent layer on Photoshop with the iPhone 13 resolutions als the PPI. And then adjusted the wallpaper into the new canvas resolutions. After, I used Generative AI to fill those empty areas. So that's what I did pretty much...

[loud sparrow]

Doing this would only make the image fit well to the screen but not generating that depth effect
Busy atm could give you a rough idea
So uh pick your resolution to use
So add your image as normal resze if needed then select the subject in this case spderman and then select and mask it give it a bit of refinements just define the edges a bit then separate the subject so it’s on a new layer cmd j
As for the background you can blur it if you wish to make the main subject stick out a bit more
But be sure that the Spider-Man which is the subject pops out a bit more and is a lil bit centered to the canvas / background
Hopefully that should work if that doesn’t work
Might as well just get home and try other steps

[raw marsh]

Ahh appreciate that. I'll try...

[raw marsh]

@charred turret Can you check this time ?

I added a depth map, a bit of background blur and some more light adjustments...

It should work now..

[tulip flume]

I have the 13 and we don’t have the option for it anymore not even for a photo of a person!

[raw marsh]

Doesn't the depth effect feature work on iPhone 13 ?

[tulip flume]

Last I checked it does with incoming calls with contact photos

[raw marsh]

What about lock screen ?

[tulip flume]

I’m still trying to figure it out but here is what the contract portrait looks like

[raw marsh]

But it does work right ?

[tulip flume]

Only when the iPhone recognizes the photo as a person, so Spider-Man is not seen as a person so it doesn’t work

[loud sparrow]

@raw marsh Bad news, that image doesnt work
More Bad news, its actually alot more complicated than that
Did a lot more digging now for that depth effect, its got to do with the metadata eg,Normally when you actually take a photo of something and it has a depth effect its cos some depth information has been captured by the cameras and stored in the Image. However this spiderman image doesnt have any form of depth information. And so im trying to manually add the depth information to the metadata of the image but IOS isnt still recongnising it, ive gone as far as using pre-trained Models to generate the depth and metadata, then adding it to the image but IOS still doesnt recognise the depth information
IOS usually recognises the depth information if the photo is mainly in PORTRAIT and the spiderman image doesnt seem to be in portrait. my theory is to make the spiderman photo a potrait then maybe the IOS system would recognise it

[raw marsh]

But I saw on the internet it does cover other main objects that appear to be more focused on wallpapers...

[tulip flume]

Mmmm let me look into something

[raw marsh]

That sounds way complex. But how do I make it a portrait ? Isn't it in portrait ?

[raw marsh]

Alr thanks..👍

[tulip flume]

I got one to work

[loud sparrow]

The spiderman pic isnt portrait-styled image thats why theres no depth information for IOS to read, for that image.

[loud sparrow]

Ahh , subject in focus and close enough

[tulip flume]

Here’s another (pixels are bad in some spots)

[raw marsh]

What if the subject(Spider-Man) zooms into forward ?

[loud sparrow]

As long as the subject is in focus thats good already

[loud sparrow]

Yes that could work, his head to be precise it needs to be in focus correctly

[raw marsh]

Hmmm

[tulip flume]

Sadly the one that is the subject starter picture does not become depth focus, I have tried multiple times

[raw marsh]

I've never touched on this depth effect subject before. This is the first ever time I'm doing it...

[loud sparrow]

And it’s proved to be quite a challenge haha

[tulip flume]

Depth Effects should be a button option or when you go to editing, it should be an option to make the image a depth effect. You could make anything depth, a pet, a flower, a cabin, a vehicle, a group of friends or your fav Marvel character.

[raw marsh]

It is..

[raw marsh]

You mean the depth effect button on the lock screen wallpaper settings ?

I don't have a phone so I don't really know

[tulip flume]

@charred turret you photo you chose won’t Depth Effect however this one will. When you find a Spider-Man with his face in front instead of his foot, it should DE

[tulip flume]

Yes but I mean a DE button that forces the image to become DE

[raw marsh]

Yeah that's right..

@tulip flume Could you check this one ?

[loud sparrow]

Still doesn’t work
The photo itself is the problem
I’ve made it even a portrait photo still the depth information is missing

[raw marsh]

Daaaaamn

[loud sparrow]

pretty frustrating ik

[raw marsh]

Interesting in the same way...

@loud sparrow Did you try to zoom in and focus on the head area ?

[loud sparrow]

Yeah i did, same result not working, im still trying though

[raw marsh]

Hmm hm

[merry berry]

I just came home but can't access the computer yet.

This is interesting, even with the depth mapping, the image above doesn't work for me. @tulip flume could it be due to the DPI settings of the image? This was my first thought.

[tulip flume]

I think it’s because the system is picking up SpiderMan’s foot first and not the face.
See the difference in the depth perception

[merry berry]

I still think it has to do something with the depth.

@raw marsh try applying this one.

[loud sparrow]

The Spider-Man image with the foot has no depth information at all in its metadata for iOS to read at all , the rest of the images Claude-7 cayde posted had got it
And it’s libel cos of how Spider-Man is positioned his foot sticking out that way rather than his head being the main focus

[charred turret]

Could anyone make the background night? 👀

[merry berry]

Oh, right, the metadata. Sadly I haven't had a chance today at all.

[rancid flicker]

Sam is AFK: Going to work , chat later - 28 minutes ago

[raw marsh]

I did this part...

Here's my PS file if anyone wants to see the way I did it..

[tulip flume]

I’m not sure how to do the whole photoshop thing or I would add the nighttime to the picture

[raw marsh]

Ohh I can do that

I didn't see the msg

But I won't be able to do right now. I have to go to sleep cus I gotta go scl early tmr 🙃

[raw marsh]

You can try though..

[raw marsh]

I tried to make it a night mode but it doesn't look accurate with the sun's reflections on the building and also the Spider-Man skin...

[charred turret]

Ok

[merry berry]

I’ll tag this post as “On Hold” and I’ll get to it as soon as I have more free time.

[raw marsh]

@charred turret Here are some relevant wallpapers...

That's all I can do 😔

[merry berry]

@raw marsh I’m watching some videos, working with depth mapping, it’s for sure not something as easy as changing the brightness 😅

[raw marsh]

Daamn you're still working on it ? I dunno what to do for it. Did you find a way to do it ?

[merry berry]

Not yet, no rush though. We’ll learn one day haha 😂

[raw marsh]

Hell yeah 🤣

[charred turret]

Any update

[merry berry]

Not yet buddy. This will probably take more time.

[charred turret]

If this is too hard you can just close it. It’s not a big deal.

[merry berry]

It’s a challenge that’ll be done, eventually. No time frame at this moment as there’s other stuff around the server that need to be done.

If anyone’s willing give it a try, they’re more than welcome to 🤓

[raw marsh]

Maybe we can pin this post as well so anyone can see it...

[merry berry]

We can only have 1 pinned post and that one is an example post. Members can always sort by a tag.

[raw marsh]

Hmm makes sense 👍
