Another note on papers. I used to use Ilford, but I got cranky at the price one day so I picked up a box of Mitsubishi Gekko Matte, tried it and liked it - and It's also great for proofs. It is a wonderful matte surface VC RC paper, and is quite inexpensive at about $33 for 100 - 8x10. It does not have the logo imprinted on the back. You can get the stuff through Freestyle if you want to try it. However, if all of us run out to freestyle to purchase the great inexpensive paper - they just might play the kodak game and charge up the price. Ah, the joys of photography.

on paper negatives: seagull oriental brand papers (confirmed with my own
eyes) and forte brand (as told by company representative) do not have logos.
i've heard that ilford is also logo free. ISO is between 6 and 2. i've been
using film developer for about 5-10 minutes, and this reduces the contrast
somewhat. you might take a took at this url, the history and how to of paper
negatives, including info on william mortenson's special techniques:
