Whatever you decide, keep in mind that if you make the background transparent in the image, the wiki can have whatever color people want (purple even) behind it.

So like (purely hypothetically) let's say everyone agrees that the maps look better in black, but then someone is like "I still play like it's 1999: I print maps ... and a black background wastes ink."

We could use a transparent image for the map, put it on top of a black background in the wiki, and then add a print stylesheet that says "change that black to white when someone prints".

But no need to go through all that trouble unless there's a need; I'm just mentioning what's possible.

def keep it transparent and do the grid lines as a separate layer.
In terms of what you mention on the wiki functionality:
If I let the background be transparent and a user opts for the black background,
then we need to have contrasting grid lines. They would likely be white colored.

If the user opts for a white background, then the grid would be black colored.

So how would the wiki dynamically change the grid layer so that it contrasts the background?
