Don, I dearly wanted backdrop warehouse offerings for my layout, but to be honest, it was too expensive for me. I'm in Canada so not only do I have to deal with the high price, but then I have to add more money due to the difference in Can/Am dollar. I have about 65 feet up of Faller's that I ended up using. Of course to get 65 feet, you have to order more as there are odd spots where you don't use the whole photo material. Even using Faller's which is relatively cheap, I estimate my backdrop, including masonite for the backstop, screws and glues, modge podge for glue (slower setting time), the actual backdrops, two types of sprays a paper fixative and a matte finish (to dull the shine when using a flash camera), it cost me close to $400. For me the only negative is the seams, but I'd rather live with a "seam" problem than a bad backdrop with no seams.
