  If you have a habit of changing wallpapers frequently go for 3D Wallpapers. 3D Wallpapers brings the AMAZING Avatar Art Collections of Koinup to your Nokia phone.

  3D wallpapers is an application developed by Koinup it brings you all the fun via beautiful wallpapers.
  
  
  

  The 3D Wallpapers users will have the chance to browse selected collections of avatar artworks, created by 3D artists, and hundreds of amazing videogames and virtual worlds screenshots.

  I have had a test run with 3D wallpapers app in my Nokia N97(thanks to Pierluigi Casolari,C.E.O,Koinup).I am not a huge fan of wallpapers but I found that the 3D wallpapers has a good collections of different images with 3D effects ,that really gives some cool moments.

  

  In order to use the 3D wallpaper you should have a good data plan ,as it downloads all the images from the server via Internet. 3D wallpapers will give you the categories first ,choose the category then it will display the images under the category,then select the image you want ,it will be downloaded to your phone and can be set as the wallpaper or can be saved in the gallery.

  

  You can download the 3D Wallapapers from the OVI Store at http://store.ovi.com/content/30802
