[photo-3d] What size is your club's screen?

Well,

I went to the Hardware store and found that I could easily make a PVC 
screen frame for a very resonable price!

The next question is what aspect ration should I use?  I've been 
assuming I should have at least a 1:1.4 ration for full frame RBT, if 
not a 1:1.5 for 2x2 projection.  I notice though that so many other 
screens are square.  Is that because of the Realist Format of 23 x 24?

I have several configurations that have occured to me (assuming a
1.5" loss at each border for reinforcement and grommets):

A.  Six 63" x 73" screens

B.  Two 74" x 111" screens across the top and three 52" x 73" screens 
    across the bottom (no waste)

C.  Four 63" x 88.5" screens and two 42" x 63" screens (if not        
    directional material) or Four 63" x 94+" screens if it is.

D.  Two 63" x 94" screens on the left side, one 85" X 128" screen in  
    the upper right corner and two 41" x 62.5" screens below that.

E.  Two 63" x 63" screens on the left, and four 63" x 78"  screens.

I would love to have a huge screen in case I do shows in larger 
buildings, but I wonder if my TDC 116 would be bright enough.  
My club wouldn't couldn't use anything much taller than 60" (we have 
low hanging lights.
