white dots/specks/pixels on Greybox SOLVED!!! was created by Marcel Damen
I've been battling with the white dots/specks/pixels on Greybox like many others in this forum and also looked for the solution and fund it was solved motnhs ago by the maker of Greybox and simply wanted to share the solution with everybody still battling with this:

Go to the mambots/content/plugin_jw_sigpro/greybox/ folder on your website and follow the steps as written here and make changes in the two files in the folder above:

Ok look like it's a IE alpha filter problem which is specifically only
with the colour #02050a,
the easiest of all solutions is just setting the frame background
colour to black or #02050a.

For a permanent fix (applies the color to loaderframehtml only when
fade complete so during fade you will still see the white spots, if
not acceptable just set loader_frame background to the color
permanently):
Throw this in the loader_frame under <script> beneath the </body> tag:

function IEalphaFix() {
iebg = document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0];
iebg.style.backgroundColor = '#02050a';
}


and AJS_fx.js line 81 (return this;) change to:
onComplete: function(){try{IEalphaFix();}catch(e){}},

Greets,
Maxwell

Save and upload the files. Be sure you have overwritten them (always make sure you saved a clean, unchanged copy somewhere on your computer before you overwrite so you can always change back in case it doesn't work or goes totally wrong now!)

For me this did the trick. I downloaded a newer version of the plugin first (which was made after this problem came to the attention of the maker and I expected he would have included this in a later version!), but this DIDN'T do it for me (strangely!). Good luck!

Sorry I'm a total newbie to image galleries, plugins, and Joomla for the most part. I have purchased SIG Pro and love it, but also having the problems with the white dots in IE7 and slimbox. I have looked at Greybox, but adding everything to the Header Section(which I don't know what is or where) is kinda confusing to me. I will have a lot of image galleries on the website I am using this for so I need something easy. Maybe Greybox is easy to use and I am just a little gun shy... can someone please walk me through the Greybox install. The info I need is, where I need to install Greybox (I have downloaded the file GreyBox_v5_53.zip), then where this code needs to go exactly. After Greybox is installed, will I need to code each page when using SIG Pro? Or will SIG Pro use Greybox as the pop up engine if I select it in the SIG Pro settings? Sorry again. Thanks for any help here.
