Yes, if you're going to cut film down, you pretty much have to go all the way into slide mounts or some such. Way too much trouble and money for me (and in a smaller collection, too; but a rather less valuable one). For me, the fact that a photo has particular people in it is MUCH more important than that I took it in California, or London, or Sydney. So filing by what's important isn't an option. Other collections will of course have different uses and priorities; I can see how it probably is very useful to file your film by location. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@xxxxxxxx; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info
