Guys nothing worng in asking such question. I also faced same problem when i applied. I had photo with gray background which i took specially for EC. It's really hard to find a photo studio here. I'm lucky to have one in my area. And i don't have any faith in British Automated Machines, i still feel uncomfortable to use them. Why!! because they don't work most of time. Once i lost £ 5 in buying Day travel card from roadside ticket machine. Once a high street ATM put outside of 2nd Largest Bank in world didn't cough up my hard earned 100 GBPs, and gave me recipt of dispense. Another instance i recharged(Topped up) electric prepaid key and it did show in receipt, but when i tried to recharge Electric meter it didn't work, yet to recover 20 GBPs from London Energy. Enough incidents to get scared with machines.
yes you need a photo with white background. Just get a British passport size photo.
