Yeah, and the resulting cockeyed prints with slanted and mis-matched
tops and bottoms look just wonderful.  Not to mention that they won't
fit in conventional print storage media without overlap, if at all.  And
that assumes that you didn't get too much vertical shift, as well, in
which case you've not only got to rotate the prints by varying amounts,
you've got to vertically offset them as well.  Now you've potentially
got little bits of non-homologous image hanging off in all directions.

For beginners this ain't.

Since you mention it, I find them very difficult to fuse properly.  I'd
be interested in hearing from other list members as to their experience.
