Change the background on picture to black

[prologic08]

When you upload a picture into your catalog and the picture is smaller than the default size, it will give your picture a white border for the thumbnail and the larger picture. Is there a way to change the background color to black?

Mile is black , after I did the upgrade! but I wanted it White ! Still can't figure it out where to fix !

I have checked the whole CSS file and found nothing... I hope someone out there knows how to fix this problem.

Thumbnail backgrounds..

I've changed my thumbnails from white to dark grey.

edit images.inc.php


I changed all the instances of 255, 255, 255 (RGB for white) to 46, 48, 47 (dark grey).. Black would be 0, 0, 0 etc.

So you end up with $white = imagecolorallocate($destImage, 46, 48, 47);

or
$white = imagecolorallocate($destImage, 0, 0, 0);

and therefore $white = black.
I know it's not an elegant fix but it did the trick.

Regen images from the link on Back Office >> Preferences >> Image
