A student here accidentally changed his full screen background color (from 75% grey). How? How to reset it?
Some digging on google led to the solution..

Photoshop TIP:

Changing the Matte Color. You can change the neutral gray background color that surrounds your image when you’re in full-screen mode or when you expand the document window larger than the image itself. Just pick a foreground color, and then Shift-click on the background with the Paint Bucket tool (it’s in the Gradient tool’s popout menu). At first glance, this is nothing more than a good trick to play on your colleagues.

However, it’s also a good way to preview how an image will look if you’re going to place it on a colored background.

Crawler Audit of my site

Well. I did an interesting audit of my site to find all the dead links and evil link typos etc.

Total locations (read: links) comes to 1906. Also important are those pesky 13 failed locations. Time to get out the toolbox. =)
