Adding Personal Photos as Your Background
You can upload a personal photo to use as your background using the Web Configuration Utility or using
a USB flash drive. When you set one of your pictures as the background picture, the picture is displayed
as Local File in the Backgrounds list.
Keep in mind the following when you use a personal photo as the background image:
• Progressive or multiscan JPEG images are not supported.
• The phone screen sizes vary by phone:
◦ VVX 300 series and 400 series phone screens are 220 x 108 pixels
◦ VVX 500 series phone screens are 320 x 240 pixels
◦ VVX 600 series phone screens are 480 x 272 pixels.
• Smaller images are centered and surrounded with black space.
• Larger images are scaled proportionally to fit the screen.
