Default DIY screen question

I've been looking at this.....

http://members.shaw.ca/danhanson/The...eenproject.htm


but also looking at this

http://www.buildyourownprojectionscr...atalog/i5.html


my question....

The method described about has the material pulled, and stapled to the flat surface..... is it not better to pull the material COMPLETELY OVER the frame, then apply that velvet tape????? I just don't see how that person in the first link made the screen "Taught" and without wrinkles etc.... Should I plan on making the screen 7 inches taller, and 7 inches wider (after stretching etc... outside dimensions of frame) and apply this 3.5" velvet tape all the way around it?????

Also, with the zoom feature, if I make my screen 98" or 102" etc... after the border is on etc... will it matter that it's not perfectly proportionate with the dimensions given for a 100" 16:9 screen??

Sorry for the numerous stupid questions!!!!!
