Well, I said I'd let everyone know my opinion on the B&W Developing 
Paper I just bought, so here goes. I bought Afga Portriga Rapid in
Grades 1-3. I've been using it for the last week and found out
why my photo instructor said it was "warm" paper. Every print is
sepia (brown) toned!! It'll take a while to get used to. I guess
landscapes and the like would look good but it just doesn't "work"
for the portraitures I'm currently doing. According to my instructor,
the brown tone is a characteristic of the paper and I didn't screw it up.
Has anybody else used this paper? What do you think of it? Any subjects
it can enhance?

Just a side note, I think I'm going to try some Galerie paper as everyone
suggested!
