MyPictures for Sony Ericsson

Bringing a fresh new look onto a mobile device is something most users have done at least once, since nowadays it is very easy to transfer data between PCs and phones. Back in the day, though, this seemingly simple task took an expert to carry out successfully.

The connectivity was somewhat limited a few years back to data cables and rarely Bluetooth enabled devices were available. Nonetheless, those who had them would have to pair the phone and the computer through a dedicated software and then use another program for managing the files,

MyPictures for Sony Ericsson is an application that was created for a select group of users, namely for those who owned a T68i, T300, T310, T200, T65, T39 or R600 terminal. This utility can be used independently or, if users want to actually send the images to their phones, in conjunction with Mobile Phone Monitor.

This tool works in a quite simple manner, allowing anyone to create one or more so-called picture 'portfolios' which can then be send to the mobile device and used for the customization of the background image displayed on the screen of the compatible phone.

Far from being a mere intermediary between two parties, MyPictures for Sony Ericsson boasts a set of editing tools that can be used for modifying any of the selected pictures so as to bets fit the needs of the user. There are several color adjustments alongside other functions for cropping, scaling or resizing the images.

The live preview which is integrated in the main window makes it possible to check out how each photo will look onto any of the supported models. Also, saving portfolios will help a lot in keeping the images organized and ready to be loaded whenever necessary.
