Well, if you can figure out how to make the mess work all the time for
everyone, while still being aesthetically pleasing, I will be impressed :) I
think it's a lot of unnecessary work for very little gain. I do agree that
SOMETIMES it looks better, but I don't think it's worth the trouble. It's
messy, and is very easy to cut out and be done with it. 

I didn't touch the gray background. In fact, until Brion pointed it out, I
didn't even notice it. I'm using 3 different monitors too, in 3 different
locations. One of them is mobile, in all sorts of different lighting conditions
you can imagine. Even 1 problem from such a subtle "aesthetic" is more than
it's worth, I think. 

The gallery would probably still look OK without it. In fact, it could probably
be paired down even more and still look good. All we're trying to do is present
2 bits of info (image, caption) in 1 context (gallery of other images and
captions). I don't think there's going to be any art awards for this :)
