[QUOTE="Robert Mitchell, post: 97359, member: 11282"] Random, soft patterns are ok but I'd stay away from anything with a repeating background. I don't travel with seamless or work on location with it, so in the studio it holds up really well, especially when you're just using it as a background and not on the floor. Once it's rolled out on to the floor it will get dirty and shoes and heels will eat it up quickly. If it never has to touch the floor then it lasts a very long time. If you roll the paper up in between uses and don't have it in an environment where temperature and humidity change a lot then it's a great solution. If you can't control climate and such then it can be frustrating and a bit of a pain when it buckles or warps from those changes in temp and humidity. Another option, if it's truly an option for you, is to have a wall painted either gray or white and that works great. Paint it white and render it any shade of gray or white very easily. Paint it gray and render it as anything from black to white. Of course, you do need the right lighting and control over the light to do so but it's a great way to go. [/QUOTE]
