Hi Doug @thewizard! I have a fabric thumbnail that should have a white background, but it appears that Dark Mode is changing that to black.

Below is a screen capture of a project I made with the fabric and the affected thumbnail of the fabric entry. This black background persists in all instances of the image of the fabric which I uploaded from the website. For entries where I took a picture of fabric in real life, white backgrounds are not changed. Switching back to Light Mode returns the white background to the fully digital image.

I am seeing the same behavior on both my iMac and iPhone.

Let me know if you need any additional information from me to troubleshoot!

Does the image have a transparent background?

You know what, it does! I checked the .png file against a colored field, and it does have a transparent background. Good catch! I will save a new version as a .jpg and re-upload so it shows up correctly. Thanks!
