Width vs Length
You can have your long side (38'') be your front and back and your short side (28'') be your left and right, correct?

Re: Width vs Length
Yes, or you can have them the other way. Both ways are correct.

There isn't any rule saying this. I've checked. Though, if someone happens to find one, feel free to prove me wrong by finding it in the manual.
