i get my designs off a site called society6.com but their images come in 400x560, do you know if there's a way to resize them perhaps to get a better quality?

Also did you crop the backplate from those pictures before printing or just take a print of the whole?!

Okay, I had previosuly printed many for myself by copying them to MS Word and printing. They printed perfectly. But there is an offer on the photo prints app to get 25 free 4×6 printouts. So I thought I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Can anyone tell me the steps how to edit template with my fav image using gimp. I am struggling to do it right.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rockykoston:
Hi, You can follow these steps to create, edit and print a backplate -

Software Needed - Photoshop CS2 (TO CREATE) - Its a freeware on a website http://www.techspot.com/downloads/3689-adobe-photoshop-cs2.html (They give the key for the FreeWare as well, on the same page)

If you understand all the steps in the first post of this thread created by ehcool, then follow those steps and skip to STEP 11 below

These are the detailed steps to CREATE A CUSTOM BACKPLATE -

1. Download the BackPlate template file shared in the first post of the thread.

2. Download the PhotoShop FreeWare, install it and Open it.

3. Click on File menu (in PhotoShop), select the template file and open it.

4. Now select 'Image Layer' option. You should find it in a right hand tool box in the photoshop.

5. Now click on File menu and Open the image, which you would like to use.

6. Once the image opens in PhotoShop, press CTRL+A to select entire image.

7. Go to Edit Menu and click on Copy.

8. Now, select the window which has the backplate template and go to Edit Menu and click on Paste.

9. You image should be now pasted within the Backplate.

10. Press Ctrl+T and move the image around, resize it, rotate it etc. using mouse to fit the backplate template.

UPDATE: You can directly print from Photoshop. The image is exactly the size of the Phone.

Once these steps are done, Click on File Menu and "Save As..". Save the new backplate as a jpeg image.

EDIT AND PRINT A BACKPLATE

SKIP to this part if you already have a backplate (edge to edge, no WHITE area around backplate) and need to size it perfectly for Nexus 5.

11. Open the backplate image in MSPaint.

12. Press CTRL+A (to select entire image, if there is no white part around your backplate) and then copy it.

(If your backplate has white area around it, you can use the select tool to select just the Backplate and copy it, just ignore the white part)

13. Open Microsoft Word and paste the image in here.

14. Double click on the image (A dialog box will open or in the top part of MS Word) and you should see the image dimensions in inches.

15. You can use Nexus 5 dimensions to exactly resize this backplate image.

I generally use 5.48" and 2.83". Values close to this will work fine.

16. Once you have resized the Image, just print it in Microsoft Word.

NOTE: I will upload images for the whole process in the evening. You can check those out as well.

**Thanks to ehcool for sharing the template and the guide.**

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

You can read my post for all directions. Sorry I dont know how to use gimp, but I have posted detailed steps for creating, editing and printing the correctly sized backplate for Nexus 5.

You just need Freeware PhotoShop to create a backplate, MSPaint and MSWord to edit and print.

When I try to print it it prints the whole A4 page...Any idea why?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Hatshipuh:
Because you told your printer to print it full page.

Tell him to print 1:1 and you're good to go.

Tap-a-talked from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nad4321:
That is what I did... it is smaller now but still much bigger than the N5

EDIT: Did it. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] baySF:
Made a few personal ones that I thought I would share. Enjoy.

EDIT: Can't for the life of me get these to print the exact size it needs to be. Either too small or too big. I give up. gonna go kms from how annoying this is.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] nad4321:
Isnt it a big tall? If if put it as it prints (and cut) the camera is too low respect to the template and i have to push the template down meaning I have to cut it at the bottom so it doesnt cover the speakers or charger plug.

Thanks though!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cooooooop:
Some of the recent custom images posted in this thread seem to be using a bad template. The size is off and the location of the camera hole is wrong. I'm not sure what template you guys are using. I tried attaching the template I am using but it says it exceeds the file size limit... I am pretty sure the template on the first post should work though.

EDIT: Actually, looks like the template posted on the first post is not so good...

I have a GIMP xcf file that works for me, but I can't upload it to the board, even tried renaming to *.psd
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cooooooop:
ZIP for the win! Here is a template that should work with GIMP, the size is right for me when I print it 1:1
[Nexus 5 Accessories] baySF:
How do you print 1:1?? I can never find that option.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] cooooooop:
I just drag the image file into a new word document and print normally. I'm sure there are other ways, but this is the easiest for me.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] suneet mehta:

Backplate Suggestion

Was wondering if anyone has a high-res camera good enough to photograph the back of the phone with the back cover off, the circuitry would look quite cool and the actual camera will exactly fit in the camera on the printed photo which has to be cut out! I suck at Photoshop so please someone help..
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LuisLAN:
You'll only see the battery and two panel covers where the mother board and the changing port/speakers are.

To see the circuitry you have to remove those panels, and I'm sure that you'll void the warranty just by thinking of doing it ☺

Edit:

Ferrari and Porsche

Would love it if someone would please help me out with a great Ferrari and Porsche logo custom back-plate template. I am currently able to print using the MS Word method. I will be without my PC for a while or would attempt the gimp/PS method myself. It would very much appreciated. For those using the Word method, ensure your template dimension are Height=6.49 and Width=4.37. I have used those for the one that did not scale right and they printed fine. I gave a lot of options but any assistance would be welcomed.

That's awesome!

I went to print it and found it was too big, so I used my template file and was going to shrink it down. I then saved as png and found that it was actually the same size!

So weird. It seems like printing out a jpg through MS Word is different than printing out a png file.

When I printed it out as a png through MS Word it was the perfect size, so I've attached my file in case anyone else wants it, all thanks to LuisLAN!

For those who don't have Photoshop

Hey guys just wanted to add my 2 cents for those who don't have Photoshop.

You will need two free pieces of software:

To edit, Paint.NET from: http://www.getpaint.net/ (3.5MB)

To print, Irfanview from: http://www.irfanview.com/ (1.8MB)

I found this great .png template on Reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus5/comments/1rhrji/spigen_ultra_hybrid_insert_template/) but it is inverted for some reason?

I corrected the orientation and added a 2nd layer to be opened with Paint.NET: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bir0wsygr0g4805/Templatex1.pdn (523KB)

Or if you like; here it is with 4 per A4 page: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6ucank2vf3fpv6z/Templatex4.pdn (2.14MB)

It is VERY important that when you import your images you

do not resize

the page.

When you finish save the file as a .png and it will flatten the image for you.

Open the .png image with Irfanview and select print.

Under “Print size:” choose “Original size (from image DPI)”

Here’s one I did for my wife:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Nexus V:
Thanks for the templates. I was able to make some nice designs using the 4xA4 template, but I was wondering would you be able to make a template on standard size Letter (8.5" x 11")? There is a little bit of a size difference between A4 and US Letter, so I'm afraid it may not print correctly and you stressed not to resize the page.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] zabz:
Good point, I'll add a link to a US Letter size. I'll work on this when I get home.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] zabz:
Ok it wont let me update my previous post because I am under the 10 post limit. I'll updated later, but here is the link for now:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Sagar4995:
not sure if this will help u or not but i've never managed to get the size of these templates right. i follow a different method, perhaps it may make things easier for u.

i resize my image files to 13.2x6.5 cms on photoshop. u should be able to do the resizing on any online photo editor.. try searching pixlr or something online. i believe even ms paint will show u the dimensions. once resized, just print them out. i go to a photo print shop and just ask the attendant to print them out and to make sure the dimensions remain 13.2x6.5 cms. then i cut out the cam hole with a blade.

chk out the pics i posted on this thread few pages back. they turn out perfect once cut n put in the case. the camera hole is the only thing i cut. the backplates edges r covered up by the case anyway, so no point cutting anything else.

g'luck!

Ive got some question for people with the Spigen Ultra Hybird Case

1. With the screen protector on, does the case mess it up? What I mean is that if you take the case on and off will it cause the screen protector to lift up of get bubbles?

Right now im using some cheap case and first time putting it on my nexus 5 it cause bubbles on the OEM screen protector from Google so i took it off, since then i got 3-4 hair line scratches so before it gets worse I ordered the case.

2. Some of the picture people post with the backgrounds look really good, is there some kind of special paper or something? When I dont it it looks dull/ washed out?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wojwem19:
I printed mine on 300g normal paper in a professional printing house. And I think that colors and toughnes is really good. Paid for each one like 1 euro.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rockykoston:
1) For me, Yes the case makes some bubbles under my perfectly placed screen protector. But its in one corner so doesn't bother me much.

2) Most people here use photo printing on glossy photo paper. That gives a very nice backplate . I use the same and have several awesome back plates.
