Carolyn,

Yes, yes. I'm shooting a three-day job this coming week, and the 
PDFs of the layouts that arrived showed an e6-like black border 
around the photographs, but with the name of the client stripped 
into the black borders, where the normal "Kodak" or "Ilford" and 
frame numbers would normally be!

I almost turned down the job, based on that alone! The Design 
Police should pay a call to the designer that comped that up.

With this fresh on my mind, maybe that's why I'm so hard on 
Bernie with this issue.
