[alt-photo] Re: Pictorico

[Diana Bloomfield]

Thanks, Paul.  I've used various other transparencies, other than  
Pictorico-- though not sure I've used Arista.  My problem with some of  
the less expensive brands is that I often find that every third, or  
so, transparency out of the box has some really noticeable defect --  
so much so that it would show up on the image.  I find that each one  
of Pictorico's transparencies, while more expensive, is absolutely  
perfect in every box I've ever bought.  So I'd rather pay more upfront  
and know every one will be usable, than otherwise.  But if you haven't  
noticed problems with Arista, I'll give that a try.
