Windows Phone App of the Week: Custom Lock Screen Lets You Get Creative With Bing Search Images

Custom Lock Screen is a remarkably well-named app that lets users search through Bing or private images to create custom backgrounds for the Windows Phone lock screen. Users can choose between preset templates and backgrounds, then add elements. Elements are rectangles or ellipses that contain images the user chooses from Bing or from their own collections. Text can be added, and different text colors and fonts are available. Users can also play around with transparency and share their finished product on twitpic.

Custom Lock Screen is available now on the Windows Phone Marketplace for $0.99, though there is a limited free trial version.
