Look, I don't mean to sound rude here. I'm actually just trying to figure out if this question was asked to get a higher score for this website.

Seriously, Figuring out the size of the background screen doesn't take a rocket scientist. There are several default background pictures in the iPhone. You could Email one of the photos to yourself and see what the image size is. You can take a screen shot, pull the image from iPhoto (assuming you are using a Mac) and look at it's size. Go to one of the hundreds of websites offering iPhone background screens or even flickr.com.

Since I knew what the screen resolution was thanks to the Tech info in the Apple Store's iPhone entry, it was pretty straight forward to figure out the size.

Again, I don't want to come off rude here. The site name here 'superuser.com' gave me the impression of serious questions like: What is the root password for logging into a jailbroken iPhone? Or, for that matter: How do I jailbrake an iPhone or iPod touch?

I am making a new background that lists my food allergies. I wanted to know what the optimum size is to accomplish this. My Google searches listed various sizes, but nothing said, "A standard background size for iPhones is x" – Mike Wills Aug 3 at 14:25

Yeah but how lame would this site be if it didnt have the answers to even the most basic questions... For it to be good it has to have it all
