I saw it and was quite disappointed. Colors didn't look good at all and
most pictures were cutoff. I agree with you that if we continue with the
same proportions a sizable black border around each photo is a necessity to
ensure it will completely fit.
Due to the poor viewing quality, I think content should be valued over color
depth.
Thanks for asking and again, thanks for putting this all together.
