I know a lot of movies are better with Wide screen. since most pics are not in a wide screen format, is it better to get a 4:3 or a 16:9?
if you get 16:9 does it strech photos to fit or does it place bars on the side.
it is the only my mom as said anything about and I have to get today or by monday at the latest and I am working alot of hours. so thanks for the help

It will center the pic. It wont stretch it.
Either size is fine.

I just bought the Kodak touch frame for Barbara & Bobby Tapley. The reviews said it was easy to use. I played with it in the store and love the touch frame feature. It looks night also. It is a wide screen, and can do portrait or landscape. I paid a little more than I was planning but thought the touch feature was worth it.

depends on the manufacture. some will resize, some don't. some require a particular size to be loaded, some don't. I have been through many of these and just need to do the research with the manufacture to know for sure. I have seen them resize and lose aspect ration, and others that fit to the longest side and crop the other edges (almost always they are "centered"). when it comes to the digital pic frames, for the most part, you really do get what you pay for (more expensive usually does mean "better").
