I'm glad you're happy for me. But why would you format an image to be best viewable on a black background? IMHO an image should be best viewed on ANY color background. When a viewer clicks on an thumbnail of yours to see the entire image (provided he or she is a member and can do so), just how much background are they looking at? Furthermore, how do you know your visitor likes black better than white? BTW I admire your work, and viewed your images on both black and white backgrounds. They look fine either way to me, but as the old cliche goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I honestly do not believe that the new color scheme dramatically changes how images are viewed and/or appreciated. If I didn't like the image, it would matter the color of the background at all. I simply wouldn't like it. For all you know, half the people here have brown backgrounds :)
