Hi,

you can't see the plot on a black background because
the default drawing color is black. 

Set the options of Plot, ListPlot ... to

SetOptions[Plot,
  ColorOutput :> 
    If[$Notebooks && 
        GrayLevel[0.] === (Background /. 
                             Union[
                               Cases[
                                 Options[SelectedNotebook[]], 
                                 HoldPattern[Background -> _], 
                                 Infinity
                                ]
                               ]),  (* Then *)
     ((# /. GrayLevel[a_] :> GrayLevel[1 - a]) &),
(* Else *)
     Automatic]
]



may help.

Regards
  Jens
