You can have a look through mine as well. There are quite a few black and white shots in it. High contrast B&W photos look great on our screens.
BTW there are alot of NSFW shots in here.

Check out jonnybuenos Black Gloss thread on here. He has an app for choosing wallpapers that has some pretty awesome ones that are mostly black.
There is also the "Hot Babes" gallery... not really my style, but there was one artsy looking upclose pic of a lady that is in black/white and her hands cover most of her mouth.... looks pretty amazing on the Vibrant.
Thanks a lot

I used the rare black wallpapers app from the market and saved one to the sd and then used the built in crop function to only use a small portion of the black background as the actual paper

I just took a picture with finger covering the camera lens. Then I applied that as my wall paper. Just because I'm to lazy to open paint and make a true black .jpg....lol it works though.

Already did ;-)
Whenever I view a plain black picture(In a dark room), I notice some black patches on my screen. Theu are black like the glass paint of the screen. The black ones are scattered across the screen. Is that normal? I can see the black patches when ai'm in a dark room and view a pure black image.
Thanks.
Yeah it's normal for our displays. You can search, and there's a lot of threads discussing this

Does anyone know?
How do I set my wallpaper in ICS to just be a color? A color that I want to make? I really like dark blue, so I want to make my wallpaper just a really dark blue. Everything else just shows pictures.
Download the app "colors" from the market and you can pick a preset color or choose your very own

Thanks! That worked perfect. Made a nice VERY dark blue for my wallpaper. Some times I just like a plain, clear background that's all. I'm not sure why the PRO version is over a dollar, if it was I would have supported.
Welcome dude. Yeah same here, pure black is awesome on amoled screens ! Super dark plus battery saver = win!

The Transformer has a Super IPS+ screen not an AMOLED. Therefore, black won't save power.
Woops wasn't aware of that, I have a nexus s I should've probably said that before

Is there any way to get black text with white background for the email apk in cm7? I find the white on black difficult to read. Thanks in advance!

Has this ever been answered? I new to CM7 and its great but can't stand all the black backgrounds, especially in email. If you're in any sunlight at all you can hardly see anything. I've looked and looked for answers. I am about 1,000% sure the answer is not "change the theme" because i've tried TONS of themes and NONE of them change the corporate email background.
Use this if you need white background.

Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a theme that keeps the stock look but goes with a Holo Light theme instead of the Holo Dark which Google just can't seem to shake.
Holo Light vs Holo Dark example
It would theme things like the Settings menu (which still has the dark theme) to look more consistent with where Google seem to be taking the colour scheme (Dialer, contacts, hangouts etc)
It would also be a bonus if some of the Holo Blue (#33b5e5) was replaced with KitKat White (#bebebe) to get rid of other inconsistencies, such as the volume bars, settings toggles (WiFi/BT).
I found this theme but the #33b5e5 just looks so out of place in KitKat..
Alternatively if anyone knows of another way to achieve this it would be good to know.
Thanks for reading!

I know it doesn't fit the bill exactly, but I love Thyrus work and the attention to details. Maybe this interests you still:

You can always check on the G+ group for development. That's where the testers hangout haha, so maybe it's just a bug (or soon to be done).
