Please, I beg of you - do not use those cheaply made, ugly, 
poor excuse for a mount. Your images deserve better. Try the 
Spicer precision cardboard mount at $10.00 per 100. You can 
get 5p normal, 5p reduced height, and 5p close-up. Rocky 
Mountain memories carries them and the URL is:

They also sell the premade RBT jig for help in alignment and 
mounting for $5.00.

As well as the silver mylar tape so highly recommended by Dr. 
Dave for $12.00 for the 1/4" (to hold chips) and $13.50 for 
the 3/8" to seal the mount.

Lastly I will personally guide you through the alignment and 
mounting process with an illustrated guide and all the help 
you require.

Just please don't be drawn to the dark side of mounting by 
taking the easy way out - you might as well send your images 
to Kodak *{;-)

That's all for now,
