Hello,

I recently framed one of my photos as a gift for someone. They asked me to sign it, make it look proffessional.. which I found amusing

. I wasn't about to use a ball point pen. So that got me thinking. I've seen a lot of professional photos with nice signatures...what do they use exactly. An old feather pen? Maybe a stamp?

Cheers.

Or maybe buy a metallics sharpie..... I dont really know lol. Signing it digitally before printing on the computer with a wacom tablet is also an option... but not in this case now unless you re print it.

Ummm... I think some sort of reflective marker like that would look nice.

Sharpie Fine Point Permanent Marker and you can dull the point a bit if you want your sig to be bolder. Black looks best on light backgrounds and metallic (silver) looks best on dark backgrounds.


Jerry ~ Baseball is a game where only defensive players handle the ball and offensive players who hit successfully in only one third of their at bats are among the best in the sport.

The metallic silver sharpie makes for great autographs! :)
