For TTF configuration:
The logos should be on the TOP with the bands around the sides.
For OTT configuration:
The logos should be on the OUTSIDE with the bands over the top.

Installation Instructions for the Original FlipClip™
Step 1.
Choose your preferred band configuration/orientation (OTT or TTF) and line up your FlipClips™ accordingly.
