Maybe I'll make the OP nicer at some point.

There are only 4 2 resolutions that matter:

640x1136: iPhone 5/5S/5C, iPod Touch 5. You can crop down to 640x960 for iPhone 4/4S and iPod Touch 4
720x1280: Androids smaller than 5"
750x1334: iPhone 6
1080x1920: iPhone 6 Plus and Androids larger than 5"

Upload/save to https://www.imgur.com as PNGs for graphics or JPGs for photos (Q=60 or higher) and use [timg] tags.

Android tablets are a clusterfuck, but the largest is 1600x2560; the iPad is 1536x2048.

To start things off, the clown fish wallpaper from the original iPhone was requested:

750


1080

I thought iPhone 6+ wallpapers were recommended to be 1920x1920 to allow for landscape orientation on the home screen? Although that's a bit of an edge case scenario and would greatly limit the amount of good wallpapers available.

The 6+ zooms in when you rotate to landscape, so a square image won't do you any good. Apple's own wallpapers don't zoom, but I don't think anyone has figured out how to replicate this with your own wallpapers.

Technically, it should be 2208x2208 since the 6+ renders at that resolution then resizes to 1080p for display, but I don't think you'll see much difference between starting with a 1242p vs. 1080p image and it's cleaner if we can just stick to 2 resolutions for posting.

Because of Parallax, we could also post 854x1590 for 6 and 1398x2592 for 6+, but nobody should be using Parallax anyway.

..why is Parallax bad? I think it adds a neat sense of dimension.

Here's a link to an Imgur album of all my iPhone 6 wallpapers. They are 852x1608, which i gathered from Macrumors is the proper resolution to support the Parallax on the iPhone 6.
