App Q&A testing by request.
I've seen threads all over about a problem with QuickLook where you can go thru a bunch of pictures, then go back up and a previously seen picture will be white.

I just now found the solution to this:

https://discussions.apple.com/message/26253710#26253710
This issue probably caused by enabling text selection in Quickview.

Try to turn it off by entering following command in Terminal:

defaults delete com.apple.finder QLEnableTextSelection; killall Finder

You sacrifice being able to select text from a QuickLook window.

As a temp fix, I also found when on an image, pressing "option/alt" seems to clear the white and show the picture...BUT the problem will continue.
