What do you do with your test strips?

[IloveTLRs]

I keep mine .. they are my photos after all. Ones that are too blown out or completely black I throw out, all the others I keep. Maybe I'll make a collage.

What do you do?

[Anon Ymous]

Usually thrown in the bin, unless I want to tone the print. In that case, it's sometimes good to do a test before toning the actual print.

I rinse them very well and keep them to season Hypo Alum toner. Why waste fresh good prints when I have old bad prints?

i made a collage out of them once , covered nearly a whole wall ...

[Vincent Brady (TEX)]

I keep mine for that talk that I'll never give explaining how I arrived at my finished print. I'm bored even posting about it.

Depends--usually test toners on them before tossing.

I throw them into the trash, unless they happen to look cool. I use work prints and reject prints for testing toners, bleaches, and such.

They can make excellent bookmarks.

hmmm laminated, hole punched and tassel'd and sold for big bucks at a book store!

yep, just that.
it also causes people to start conversations with me about photography while I'm in the bus/train/etc.

other than that, I keep some that I fix and rinse well to test toning capabilities.
