It's advertising, it happens every now and again, but if toi have AdBlock it will only be black no ads, but if toi don't there should be an ad for something.
the image shows an ad from about 6mponths il y a (there have been plus though)
It's an advertisment for Lexus convertibles! You're probably seeing black because toi have the ad blocker program, I don't. fanpop does full page advertisment some times, it's happened before. It will retreve to it's regular white backround in a couple days ou so.
