Cydia Tweak: Give The Photos App A New Look With DarkPhotos

It's no surprise that iOS 7 has a lot of white space. Most of the stock apps in iOS 7 are designed with a white background and specific accent colors, but sometimes that can be a bit underwhelming. Thankfully, DarkPhotos can add a little flair to the iOS 7 Photos app.
This Cydia tweak will strip all of the white and replace it with a darker palette. Essentially, this gives the Photos app its own night mode, but unfortunately, there's no way to disable it aside from uninstalling the tweak.
From DarkPhoto's Cydia description:
Getting nice and nitty-gritty, DarkPhotos manually overrides every major color in the Photos app to make it far more night-friendly. Makes everything dark tinted and frosted. Compiled for all devices, supports all other tweaks of its kind.Overall, DarkPhotos adds a very sleek look to the Photos app that's similar in style to another tweak called Eclipse. In my opinion, it would be nice to see a gesture added to enable/disable the tweak similar to how Tweetbot 3's Night Mode functions. If you'd like to check out DarkPhotos, you can find it in the BigBoss repository for free. As noted by its developer, DarkPhotos is compatible with all iOS devices. Check out the screenshots below.
