Response to No Edge Codes, No Pics!!!

If you got absolutely nothing, not even edge marks, the most likely answer is that you had no development occour. This could be caused by a number of factors, no developer, as in not adding the developer to the water if it is diluted from stock before using , using stop bath for developer, or fixer for developer. If the developer had any life at all to it there would have been some edge markings, even if they were very faint. I had this happen once to me, and it was indeed because I mixed up the fixer with the developer. My containers are now well marked, and used only for the solution for which they are designated. To verify that no development took place, take a piece of leader that you cut off and with out development, fix it until clear. You will see that within 4 or 5 minutes, at most, the film will be completely clear.
