Free Downloadable Trapster Backgrounds
Posted by Stefanie in Android, BlackBerry, Trapster Life, iPhone on July 28th, 2010
I was playing with my iPhone today and thought, I want a cool new background. Then I thought, I want a cool new Trapster background! After creating my super cool new Trapster background for my iPhone I felt sad that I was the only person that would benefit from this awesomeness.
So this leads me to where I sit right now. Writing a short blog post to share my cool new Trapster background. But wait, there’s more! (I’ve always wanted to say that, hehe) After creating my cool new Trapster background I went ahead and created a Droid, a BlackBerry, and a few other generic ones you can mush and mash to fit whatever phone you might have. Of course you need to have a phone with the customizable background feature.

Top 7 Trapster User Blunders
Okay, we love you guys to pieces but be honest, how many of you can say they’ve reported a live police trap in the water? Or tested out the road hazard traps by placing one on top of the other in the same exact location until there was a pile so big Mt. Helen looked like a hill? Oh yes, and how about going around voting YES on every Live Police alert you receive just to make sure those police traps are noticed. Like I said we love you, we really do, but for the love of Trapster!!!
What I don’t think most Trapster users realize is that we review, research, and spend great pains and time going over all the data users, like yourself, enter. We want it to be accurate for everyone. Even you multiple trap reporters. We see them and want you to know we see them. In turn, maybe you’ll help us here at Trapster headquarters and make our life a little easier… maybe… if you like us that is. Don’t worry though you don’t have to like Sean. You can just like me. I won’t tell.
