I finally decided to chip in here. There are alternatives as well if you must must must shoot on carpet. You can spend about $30 and get enough materials to do this. On top of the carpet, I place one of those rigid office-chair mats that were all the fad in the 80s (I seem to be in a constant state of roll if I use one of those) directly on top of the carpet. Next I place a couple of sheets of Bath Board on top depending on how large of an area I need. Bath board can be picked up from your local home depot and has lots of other great uses as well. It can be used for dry erase markers, and I suppose you could use it in your bathroom since thats what it is designed for. I then roll my seamless paper out on top of it. Since my seamless paper roll is just a tad bit longer than my bathboard, portability is not really an issue (I've got a tahoe). Just my $0.02. :) Fair Winds and Following Seas, Branden R.
