Digital frame on shabbos

Question:

Is one allowed to keep on & look at a digital frame on shabbos?

Answer:

Although one is not actively transgressing Shabbos by  looking at a digital frame, nevertheless it definitely taints the Shabbos spirit and might be an act of disrespect. Also others might emulate him and extrapolate and start adjusting the digital frame on Shabbos.
