HDWall trouble

In trying to use HDWall to get a new background and I'm running into some issues.

Attached is a screenshot of what's happening, as well as the image and its proper placement behind the programs of the start menu, and the original jpg.

I also read the HDWall walkthrough and followed that step-by-step and still no change.

If you notice, the background does not extend all the way behind the slider but instead stops far above it. The image also does not extend to the far right edge. If you notice screenshot1.jpg there is a black space behind the mail icons in Sense.


Here is the process I'm going through in HDWall on my desktop:

1. Drag image into HDWall
2. Press Auto Crop and Resize
3. Apply
4. Close
5. Choose output directory as my desktop
6. Create cab
7. I mark the checkbox stating, "Include Portrait Wallpaper"
8. Press Convert and wait
9. Press Create Cab
10. Move cab onto storage card, install, then soft reset.


That's exactly step for step and I'm using wallpapers from santod's pack as well.

I've tried this about 20 times with a variety of wallpapers and they all seem to stop way short of the slider and never extend all the way down or to the far right.

I am running MightyROM War if that helps as well.


Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
