As you might imagine, I wasn't really saying that either trimming or re-backing was ok by me, or the same as the other methods mentioned, but wanted to see where and how you drew the line by making the argument or comparison.....that if you can physically change what a card looks like by doing the more accepted alterations/restorations, what exactly in your mind was stopping you from altering the physical characteristics by trimming and re-backing.....I think its probably simple in that the latter just seems wrong and 'way over the top' to you, while soaking/erasing etc. don't. I was really only looking for a more fleshed out explanation of what you were thinking as you made those decisions.

Guess I just didn't ask in the right way in which to expect a clearer answer.
