To the first question, don't hold me to it, but I believe the system does take into account plurals, etc.
As for borders, I generally follow the advice given to me by my mentor. For a print, I use a simple, white (except for the occasional image where white just absolutely doesn't work, then black). For example, if I'm prepping an 8 x 10 print, I will crop to 7.5 x 9.5, then increase canvas size to 8 x 10 with the white. The reason for this is- for one, it gives a place to put your title, copyright, name etc. without having to put it on the image, and it gives some 'space' available to matt and frame the print. You can have the matt actually cover the border, and not lose any of the image at all.
this is just me :-), I'm sure there are many different opinions. |
