I´m watching pics on eBay, but they are very expensive, someone add 15$ for shipping costs
Then I´m searching on Internet to print on a photo shop. What do you recommend, glossy or mate?

Hi!
I used to develope mate photos, but now I prefer glossy ones. For one thing they look nicer, for other I think that you can recognize a real autograph on them much better than on mate ones.
Enjoy,
Sammya

Glossy for me as well. A few years ago I only developed my photos in matt because of the fingerprints you see on glossies. But well - I was just a little girl (was before my "autographs-career

). Glossy photos look much more professional and nicer in any way (like the others already said). Would never ever go back to matts

I prefer the Matte photos. Why? Because the ink from the marker is able to soak into the fibers of the photo. {thumb2}
Where as on a glossy photo, the ink just stays on top due to the the fibers being blocked by the glossy layer, This causes smearing when not given enough time to dry.

Plus the ink can actually chip off or rub off on some glossy photos!!

Then I´ll print glossy (is more brilliant). Thanks
