White Background
Thank you for all your hard work as the site i like a lot in parts,but I am very disappointed that you have chosen a white background, it is hard on the eye and it makes the eye be drawn out of the image. The white background maybe good for iPhones etc, but has means you have forgotten the original reason about displaying the images in a restful way.
If you must have a white background for iPhone etc, would it be possible to give people a choice of white, grey or black background for people that view blip on a computer.
I would be very grateful if you would consider this idea.

If you use an iPhone or iPad there is a facility to change the white background to a black back ground: inverting it. Somewhere in the settings. I cannot remember how to do it, but mine I can change by pressing the homebutton three times
Spike2013 the problem for most of us is we want to change the background on a computer. I don't use mobile applications such as tablet or phone but I gather the white isn't so bad on them.
(Tbh the high contrast caused by the white background isn't a great user experience on mobile devices either.)
