What is a sky blue screen?

A sky blue screen is simply a web page filled edge to edge with one solid color — Sky Blue, hex #87CEEB, or rgb(135, 206, 235). It is a very light, cool color: in HSL it sits at 197° hue, 71% saturation and 73% lightness, and its relative luminance is 55.3%. sky-blue is one of the standard CSS color names, so it renders identically in every browser.

Turning a display into a single flat color is more useful than it sounds — as a light source, a test pattern, a video or photo backdrop, or ambient lighting. This page is that color, ready to open full screen or download, with no app to install and nothing uploaded anywhere.

What people use a sky blue screen for

Blue screens are the standard for bias lighting — a dim blue or blue-white glow placed behind a monitor or TV lowers the perceived contrast of the room and eases eye strain during long sessions. Blue is also the reference for checking the blue sub-pixels of a panel, a favourite for "blue screen" jokes, and a moody backdrop for photography and streams.

Beyond that, a sky blue screen is handy for all the things any solid-color screen is good for:

Using a sky blue screen on any device

Phone & tablet — open this page in your browser and tap Open full screen; on iPhone and iPad, turn the auto-lock off first if you want it to stay on, and hide the browser bars by tapping full screen. Laptop & desktop — full screen hides the taskbar and menu bar for a true edge-to-edge sky blue field; move the window to a second monitor first if you are using it as bias lighting. TV & projector — open the page in the built-in browser, or download the 4K image and open it from a USB stick or a casting app for a rock-steady sky blue screen.
