Sorry - I forget you all have not been sitting next to me while I work
on this. I get in my own head and forget to include the rest of the
story.

I need to know the size of the image, gutter, margins on the classic
photo strip layout - the one where there there are only 4 images per
strip and the one where there are matching images on either side.

I need the dimensions with and without the "event logo" at the
bottom. Generally do they make the 4 images smaller or just show 3
with the logo as the 4th.

I would also like that information for the To Furious images.

Most programs have a default for strip photos with a standard 4x6"
picture having each individual image at 2x2". The amount of the border
is then default set in some programs to about a millimeter. I
personally prefer a highly customizable interface where you can change
the padding available, gutter, as well as opt for the border frame
color.

Depending on the program and layout, a header and footer could be
created that autocheck for a default. If using either header/footer is
small about 8-10 font and 2 lines max, then you can include it per
strip without really affecting overall image sizes. When using both or
opting for a monogram/logo, then most programs drop to a 3 image strip
with the remaining 2x2" space for that graphic. Another option is to
use a 4x8" paper which is what many of the photobooths that are at
malls etc do with a charge of about $3 per a pair of strips.

Per gutter: if you not using perforated paper source, then having a
gutter of less than a millimeter is difficult to cut. Suggestion of
about a centimeter for easy and no real loss to picture size.
