    Best Marker / Color for Photo

    I'm getting ready to get a couple 8x10s signed and was wondering what you guys think are the best markers for photos that show up easily and will last. They're Cincinnati Reds players (one's the SI cover in my avatar). Just curious what you thought.

    I myself would go with red, I think it would pop and would look unique.

    Thanks for the advice.

    You guys use a certain type of Sharpie or another type of pen/marker?

    You can get the SRX markers at Target but you have to buy the whole pack.

    You can go to Walmart and get 2 Elementz metalic markers for $1. I like those just as well. They look good and dry fast!!

    Here is a Mitch Moreland that I got done in gold:

    I was considering a silver metallic marker so thanks for sharing the pic and the kind you use.

    I got this Aroldis Chapman cover photo so I'm thinking with it being so dark it would look pretty good.
