I don't proof all the pics i take at a show, just random ones. BBPro seems to do a good job of adjusting when making the web pages so they all tend to look pretty good. I just quickly scroll down the thumbnails in BBPro and look for obvious flubs. If an OOF shot gets by me, and is ordered i return the money. So far, since 2001, that has only happend once.
