Has anyone ordered these in a color other than black or white? Curious to see what the others look like.

Anyone with experience using these frames, how solid are the overlays? Specifically from the standpoint of protecting the artwork from someone who might touch the overlay or accidentally bump against it. Obviously a piece of glass or plexi is very solid, you can tap your finger against it with no fear of impacting the art behind the glass. Can the same be said for the overlays with these frames?

Just got 3 of the 24x36 frames and the build quality is excellent.

For those who have them: did you use the included screws to mount them to your wall or will regular nails work fine?

I've been told using a nail & wire will work, which is what I plan to do.

I screwed it in so I don't have to worry about it moving around. Plus I didn't have any wire.

These things are awesome and I need to grab more.

Haha, there is no stealing in this hobby. :P I am definitely going through a white on white phase (even for custom framing). Looks great!
