I'm sure the photos will be better if you use cms ;-) Nice idea about the format, unsure about the pixel count though.

I plan on working up some images at these sizes which perhaps will have some resonance in our photo DNA. Sometimes I plan on just entering the inch sizes at whatever resolution I'm using on the print. As they are a bit small for the screen even. I really don't know. Maybe I'll find myself using these all the time. Or hardly ever. But It was fun doing it. - - from my iRabs.
