Btw, the nightly seems to be down, so no testing of the new stuff yet. :-(
(Quickly solved! I browsed the source briefly yesterday but could not find a way to switch interpolation method to nearest neighbour. Wasn't that difficult I see now...)

I vote for a one pixel black border. This is the way it looks in Photoshop and it seems to work good there. :-)
 
Maybe setting the background color of the window to a neutral gray-shade would help even more to separate most images from the window itself, but I guess this is mostly personal preference.

It's obviously on my TODO-list however.
