Hi,

I recently started using "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer". Note: For
years, I have used other viewers.

I really like this viewer's operation, but I can not find a way to change
the background color, the color outside the image I am viewing, from white
to black. Many images I view are small images and it is very annoying with
the bright white around those images.

I searched the program's "Help" for this information, but found nothing.

Thank You in Advance, John
 
I use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to preview images, I use IrfanView
to view saved slide shows, I use XnView to view indexes of images and I
use PhotoShop to edit images.

Irfanview is a great viewer, and has basic photo editing built in also.
Plus it will play video files. I install it on computers I repair
and/or give away.

Photoshop is way out of my price range. Always has been. There are
other editors that are cheaper and work just as well for a lot less
money. There's also a free one called GIMP you might want to check out.

Depending on what you want to do, Irfanview may do everything you need.
And it's free also. Remember to download and install the auxiliary file.

I'm not sure why you replied to me.

I find a lot of people view Usenet posting as a "flat" process; they
apparently think that the next post must follow the last one in a thread,
and can't imagine the possibility of responding directly to the article they
are commenting on.
 
Have you ever looked at IrfanView? It's free and when I just
looked at some small images, the background is black.

You can change the background color to whatever you like.
