Actually, just leave a substantial border around it and cut the MAT to fit the image :) When I showed, I always had someone else cut the mats - anyone who has witnessed what a klutz I am would agree I should do that. and I assembled frames myself - I fancied 12" x 16" frames usually leaving a large white border. I had no idea that frame shape was a trend bucking one - the proportions just looked good to me. ann > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > > Behalf Of Mark Stringer > > Sent: 16 August 2006 12:46 > > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > > Subject: Re: Holy Crap -- Pentax 10MP body > > > > 6x7 format translates to fine art print sizes without > > cropping.
