Description
Hi,
The module is working very well, but I am having a minor issue that is driving me nuts.
I am using D6 last stable build and the pretty much stock Colourise theme. When I am in add/edit mode some of the text cannot be seen unless the entire page is highlighted. (see attached.)
Thinking .css maybe...other screens, i.e. *MCE can be seen fine, just ImagePicker is obscured. I looked at the .css file in the module, but didn't think changing it would work. Other than this, the module is flawless.
Thanks very much.

Imagepicker is inside an Iframe and some themes don't play well with Iframes ;-(
You can try copying imagepicker-page.tpl.php to your theme and altering things in there.
Hope this helps

I will try that out and let you know in a day or so how it went. Stay tuned.
Thanks,

No that didnt do it. I wish there was a way to force a white background...I tried to edit, but the css for the site is overriding it. Anymore ideas?
#4
did anyone figure out a solution to this yet? I'm experiencing the exact same problem.

Please read my answer at the start of this thread. This can be done, you need to find out which css id or class is generating the dark background and override it in imagepicker-page.tpl.php, having copied it to your theme.

Thank you. I'm sorry I misread your initial response, but what you said worked for me!

Great!
Tell the list what you did so someone else can benefit ;-)

Probably one of the worst ways of dealing with this problem, but i copied imagepicker-page.tpl.php from the module and put it in my theme folder. From there i changed the
<body>to<body bgcolor="#000000">It's ugly, but it works.

That is exactly what imagepicker-page.tpl.php is for. Themes vary enormously and this is how to cope. You could put this in the head:
<style>body {
background: #000000;
}
</style>
That should work but css can be picky ;-(

Thanks for all the help folks. I fianlly decided to abandon Image Picker completely for other reasons.
