Thanks Harold....this is how RBT recommends to use their slides....as a
standard, for all the reasons you mentioned.

Some people dislike the reflections caused by having the white half forward,
and the refelections are different depending on the slide chamber of the
viewer being used.....different reflective by products.  
Soon I will be offering RBT's in all black or all white, as well as
black/white combo standard.  This will accomodate those that do little to no
projection....who might want all black....and those who like all white....for
weddings....and  I am working right now with RBT on different colors for the
halves.....for organizational purposes.....color coding...and presentaion
aesthetics.  All are welcome to email me suggestions that I can pass on to
RBT.  JON GOLDEN RBT
