SeaMonkey 2.8 now displays graphic files (.jpg, .png, .gif) that are
not
full screen centered with a black border around the picture. The
previous way through 2.7.2 was to display them top left justified on a
white screen. Is this change by design???? And if so is there some
setting I can change to get the old way back? Or at least change the
border from black to white?
Yes, it's by design. You can install an extension that will revert
that change. It is called Old Default Image Style.
1. Go to Tools-->Add-ons_Manager, to open the Add-ons Manager.
2. Select the "Get Add-ons" panel.
3. Search for "Old Default Image Style".
4. It should be the first result. Just click on the [Install] button.
Thank you Chris, that extension works like a charm. That change broke my
security camera watchers for the same reason it broke all the tests,
they expected the image to be in the top left of the display area and
the top left of the image to be in the same place regardless of image
size. I checked the release notes and changes and didn't see anything
about the change until you pointed me to the extension which listed the
bug number. Thanks again.

Now that's a fantastic hunk of user feedback, IMO. And one more reason
for providing a user Preference selection.
I use Graphic Converter, and in it's photo browser this new to SM
display setting is called "Digital Lightroom"...and I like it, for that
purpose - browsing and manipulating images located on my hard drive.
But for use in a web browser it seems that there are some legitimate and
reasonable situations that call for leaving well enough alone...or at
least providing choice!
