The silver background version is great, but the image does work better with the original white background I think. I thought they were equal but didn't realize there was a border. I wonder why they chose to do that. It looks no good. EDIT: Just noticed my white has a border too. Not as noticeable but still kinda bugs me. Why do artists do that? |

Not sure about the border on the metallic version at all....also I,ve often had problems with scratches and marks on metallic prints!! Am I the only one?
..I'll stick with the white version thank you very much...for me the best miss bugs print yet!! Roll on the next image.

Have to say I prefer the grey. I used to have a Star Eyes with a similar colour scheme and border - I thought it worked very well floated to the edge of a white box frame:  |

It needs a border as anything without a border looks weird. When do you ever see prints that are cropped?
Plus its not metal paper so i dont understand how you could scratch the ink without scratching the paper

prints with no borders look cheap, especially screen prints.

I've never had issues with my metalic inks getting scratched on my prints. However, the prints on metal do scratch easy. My Warhol Shot print has a few scratches on the two bottom corners. It came that way, not from source, but the secondary market. Bunnyboy- I will have my Star Eyes and my 1st edition Carry Your Sins (maybe ALL of my MB) framed just like your photo. Thanks for the idea! |

Their other stuff (sans border) is incredible. Same with BAST, the SOS stuff, Takashi Murakami screens, and there are plenty more. A border works with some images and doesn't with others. With that silver background I don't think it works. At least sign the image so it could be framed out. |
