I could be wrong, but I recall the dark mode being more gray and translucent in prior versions.

I hope this ends up fixing the backlight issue I and a few other iMac users have been experiencing with High Sierra. The backlight is coming on during sleep mode sometimes and staying on. Wifi usually stops working after waking it like this as well.

It seems you have "Reduce transparency" on.
It looks like that’s it. It turned on by itself though. I installed the update on 3 different Macs that didn’t have it on in the past. New default possibly?
That could be an issue related to your sysprefs/accessibiltiy/display settings: is "reduce transparency" enabled?
Yes. It oddly turned itself on for both my 13” and 15” 2013 MacBook Pros during the update but did not turn on for my 2016 MacBook Pro.
Funny how the one issue with this build is related to WPAD and Google just posted an exploit for it on Windows as well. https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.kr/2017/12/apacolypse-now-exploiting-windows-10-in_18.html
You ask this as if EVERYONE has this problem. It doesn’t happen on either of my Macs. Why don’t you call AppleCare?
Try if it still crashes in a new User Account on your Mac, go to System Preferences, open Users and groups, add a new User, next logout from your normal account and log into the new one, if Photo's does not crash there it's a problem with your normal User Account.
If you need more assistance just let us know, but be aware not everybody is in the same time zone.
It's just a question, he didn't imply others have the same problem, and telling the guy to call AppleCare isn't helping him much.
Do you really think *anyone is reading that very long and VERY technical article.
Most of us here don't know what the *** it's all about.
*= almost no-one.
Well I did, and I quite enjoyed it actually.
Alternatively use the guest account. It automatically cleans up after itself afterwards
You're a Nerd.
Just kidding.

Yes, if it's enabled.

Thank you! That's the kindest thing I've heard all week, hehe.
Yes, in a way it is, it used to be that if you were a nerd you were...erm....kinda special/odd, nowadays it's accepted and most of those 'nerds' make lots of money and have the nicest chicks.
