I downloaded a cell phone wallpaper, how do I use it?

We provide you with a variety of cell phone wallpaper images and sizes to download and transfer to your phone yourself. We do not support sending the image to your phone via a picture or text message. However, if you have a Bluetooth enabled phone and a bluetooh device for your computer it can be as simple as dragging and dropping a file. If you do not, there are other websites in existence that will permit you to upload a file to send to your cell phone, or you may purchase a Data Cable and use special software to transfer files to and from your cell phone in that manner.

What is the difference between SVG and JPG?

At Flagpictures.org, we've got vector flag art for over 200 countries and extra's for our more popular countries. To download the vector art select the "SVG" option to the left of the flag. You may also download a high resolution JPG file which will display easily on the web, as your desktop background or other options. In order to edit the "SVG" or scalable vector graphic, you'll need a program like Adobe Illustrator that can work with vector images. The fantastic thing about vector artwork is that no matter how large you want the image to be it will scale up without degrading the quality of the image. You may right click on the link SVG or JPEG and select "save as" from the menu, or follow the link and select "Save Page as..." on the following page.
