Darker pages


Ok here's a poll, should we darken the pages where our pictures are posted, from light grey to dark. I post images on forums with white backgrounds and it don't do just to the images, but love the dark gray ones ,

I agree 100% Martin. Lighter backgrounds tend to wash out the image.

Re: Darker pages


Martin, for the link colours, instead of the blue or grey, why not try the orange that Photium offers?
