My opinion is the background of the pipe images should be the most "neutral" possible. Otherwise Pipedia pages will ressemble a Christmas tree. Neutral :

- Backgrounds with pipe holders, books, pipe tools, computer screens ou keyboards, room sceneries, flowers, plants of all kinds, even pipe sleeves (which are rarely originals) ... disturb from what we are all interested for: PIPES

- Flashy colours should be avoided too. IMO white, black or (colored) grey are the best.
