[alt-photo] Re: sizing options for color gum

[Diana Bloomfield]

I probably should add that a lot of my work is printed from either  
pinhole or toy camera negatives, so edges are always a bit on the   
fuzzy side, anyway-- certainly not tack-sharp with clearly defined  
edges.  I have made prints from lens-based cameras, of course, that  
are tack-sharp, and it still seems to work fine.  If there's any mis- 
registration at all (and I used to get that with pre-shrinking  
anyway), it's very very slight and easily manipulated.  I'm not really  
sure why that paper doesn't shrink -- makes me think that it's not  
completely organic in some way-- but maybe cotton in papers doesn't  
work the same as cotton in clothes. ??
