Bamboo Shades - where do you hang them?

I recently purchased bamboo shades for our family/living room and went with the inside mount layered by drapes hung at ceiling height.  More on that very soon.  I see images around the web and can't help but notice that some bamboo shades are hung inside the window and some are hung above the window. 

Here are a few with inside mount...

Here are a few images of shades hung high, a nice option if your windows lack casings or if your window is located well below the ceiling...

In order for this to work, the molding should be completely covered when the shades are closed like you see in the above image.

 When it comes down to it, I think it really depends on the trim detail, ceiling height, and overall look you are trying to achieve.  Do you have a preference?
