Cute Black Wallpaper Girl
Cute art with a girl subject, kept on a dark ground instead of the usual pink. Community-shared; register to add yours.
Pastel on black is the pairing that suffers most from a small file: soft pinks and lilacs sit close together in tone, so compression merges them into flat patches and the art goes muddy. Source quality keeps them separate. The black surround also means only the character is lit on an OLED panel, so the pastels read brighter than they would on white.

Common questions
Do black wallpapers actually save battery?
On OLED and AMOLED screens, yes. A true-black (#000000) pixel is switched off rather than dimmed, so it draws no power — and with an always-on display that runs all day the difference is measurable. On an LCD screen it saves nothing, because the backlight stays on either way. Not sure which you have? Our OLED test tool fills the screen with pure black: on an OLED it goes completely dark, on an LCD you can still see the backlight glowing grey.
How do I set one as my wallpaper?
Long-press on mobile or right-click on desktop to save the image, then set it from your gallery or system wallpaper settings.
