Custom Background Color/Image

Hello, Sorry if this has been asked before but wouldn't it be cool to being able to change the background of the editor for you and the players? Something that would greatly benefit this is for example cave explorations, so that the players don't really know how far the cave could keep going and everything would feel much more "dark" as expected to be. I know about things like Stylish and Stylus but they just apply the settings for yourself. It would be enough to be able to change the color and it would be even better to be able to upload an image to use on the background, for now the only solution is to make a huge page that could causa lag especially in maps where the AFoW and Dynamic Lighting are aneabled.

You know you can change the background color of the page and then extend the size of the page beyond the size of the map image, creating a "buffer zone" of sorts, right? Would this not accomplish what you are looking for?

As I wrote at the end of the post, extending the size of the page for example to 500x500 with a black color it can causa lag and when I tested this solution one of my players couldn't load it completely and the cave we were using was just a giant grey pixel for him. Also with that solution you have to put everything away from the borders of the page otherwise you'd keep seeing the background of roll20 and that means that the players will need to find the map we're playing on everytime, and that in a new page with AFoW and Dynamic Lightning can take quite some time as the players would see just a little area on the page. (Also the Advanced Fog of War can't be enabled on a map that is more than 223x223 as it has a limit of 50,000 cells)

I was not suggesting you make 500x500 pages; I meant just a bit more than the size of the map itself. Say your map is 100x100. I would suggest making the page size 150x150 and centering the relevant map area in the center of that, giving a 25-unit buffer on all sides. How large are your maps?

My maps are usually 100x100 or 150x150 but my players like to view the page from far away so they'd end up seeing the background even adding just a few cells.
