I don't know what's really causing it, but alot of images in my gallery/scrapbook look weird. Or rather, they suddenly have a black background what used to be transparent.

This is only an issue with the resized/preview image! clicking on it for a re-size or using the download button will still provide you with the original uncorrupted image!

I can fix it by re-uploading the picture (as the preview/resize image is resetting), but it keeps on happening and seriously ALOT of images (especially in my scrapbook) seem to do this. So I'm waiting on an update as to how/why it is happening before I go 'fix' things. I'd understand if it happend to everything (would be a preview/jpeg related issue known for websites), but it only happens to certain deviations... We'll see what support says about it.

*edit*(apparently, they think this: support.deviantart.com/entries… accurately describes my issue. I can see it being the same issue, but it encompasses much more than grey rectangles and nothing at all... Faulty descriptions ftl. -Then again, we ARE talking about a help desk service, C.-)

Example of the issue: axemgr.deviantart.com/art/Spik… (but there are many, many more ;))

Chuck out.

*In short, don't send me notes about it ;)

Tested it in 2 browsers and I see your point. I guess something went wrong when dA created a resized preview. I also remember the deviations affected by this being ok a while back. Strange...
