Well, "processessing" isn't a word - :) - but yeah, you got it.

I'm actually interested in knowing how much of a border others add to their 6x4s. Somebody mentioned 3/8", but I don't want the border to be too small or too large if the lab doesn't end up cropping much off.

You can view what your printed picture will look like on mpix's website right before you submit your order and adjust your picture border accordingly. Thats how I see if any part of my picture is too close to the edge and may be cropped. Then I just add a border to compensate.

if you do it right, you won't even be able to see the border in the finished picture because it will be cropped off.

Wouldn't it be easier to use an oversized border, and adjust their crop tool accordingly, sparing yourself the aggravation of adjusting the border and reuploading the file?
