I think this is a wonderful site and am having fun sharing my images and partaking in some discussions. I've noticed the predominant background color is white. I really think it's distracting to the quality images posted here. I notice it most on black and white images. The white background competes for the eyes' attention and almost makes the overall image look less contrasty and darker than it really is. I think a neutral gray color would probably be best as black would have the exact opposite effect. Just putting the suggestion out there. What does everyone else think?
