In mind, maybe. But when it gets to going to the shop with the card (do you have more than one?) and talking to the man about all that technical crap and then the prints come back and they don't look like you remember and Auntie's head is cut off.....
Happens all the time. The morons need to read their manuals, do a little simple math, and fifure out that their nice new 3:4 aspect camera won't make a 4x6.
I'm not going to go through every job and recrop their pictures for them, I'd never get anything else done.
You won't need to, because they just will not come back. Most of the people I know who have digital cameras print less than 1% of their pictures. Once the new model sales dry up - as they will, because most people are happy with their camera and do not intend spending that sort of big money again - the market is going to be in real trouble. Before they laid down a couple of hundred for ther new toy, the most they had previously spent was 30~40. As a non-essential purchase, they do not anticipate doing it again - at least not in a hurry. They might be morons but they know poor value when it clobbers them in the wallet. 8-)
