Hi Michael,

You don't need to subclass to do this. Just use setValue:forKey with 
the option key "IKImageBrowserBackgroundColorKey" :

[_imageBrowser setValue:[NSColor blackColor] 
forKey:IKImageBrowserBackgroundColorKey];

other keys are :
extern NSString * const IKImageBrowserBackgroundColorKey;                    /
*NSColor*/
extern NSString * const IKImageBrowserSelectionColorKey;                    /*NSColor*/
extern NSString * const IKImageBrowserCellsOutlineColorKey;                    /
*NSColor*/
extern NSString * const IKImageBrowserCellsTitleAttributesKey;                /
*NSDictionary*/
extern NSString * const 
IKImageBrowserCellsHighlightedTitleAttributesKey;    /*NSDictionary*/
extern NSString * const IKImageBrowserCellsSubtitleAttributesKey;            /
*NSDictionary*/
