No, I understood.  I feel the same way and try to outquess publishers 
by cropping the photo a way that I like but that might fit with their 
needs,  which usually involves leaving space at the top for 
titles.  I have to have a different mindset for the photos that I 
send for stock and those that I plan to print for galleries.  You can 
sometimes use the same photos but they have to be cropped entirely 
differently.  I try to keep that in mind when I'm shooting and take 
lots of different possibilities.  That's why I'm still editing the 
over 7000 photos that I took in China ;-)
