Its kind of tricky to get a perfectly sized wall paper for this tablet because of the different screen aspect ratio in Portrait vs Landscape.
I've never heard of the stock wall papers going wonky.

Study this page till it make sense, then download the template, and give it a try:
Acer A500 Wallpaper Template - Android Forums

Oh, and Plus 1 on the QuickPic app. The only reason it is on my tablet is for making wallpapers.

Check out Multi-Picture Live Wallpaper.

It shows in the Live Wallpaper section, and then you can set a picture and you can choose the zoom (I usually do the show all). There is no sexy scrolling like with the stock wallpapers, but you can use any picture and see the whole thing.

You can also set it to pick a random picture from a folder.

There are options to do a different wallpaper on each of the home screens, or even a different folder for each of the home screens.

Give wallpaper wizardrii by twisted apps a try, it works good for me. It can be found in android market and is free.

Tablet Wallpaper free on the market works great, plus they have thousands of them.

Thanks to all for this thread. I was very angry with the stock Honeycomb wallpaper function not allowing me to capture more of the photo. But when I read this and found other options on the Market I am much pleased with my wallpaper results now.
