Hey! :)

From alot of members from this forum i found out that i should MATTE autographed photos because it reserves the signiture and it lasts much longer...but today i printed out my carrie underwood concert pics @ cvs and i was wondering:

if i dont matte these photos will they not last long? (The pics are UN-SIGNED)

thank you.

ps: i wanna collage them on the frame...just by the way! :)

The purpose of a mat is to provide space between the autograph and the glass of the frame, that's all. You don't want the autograph directly touching anything.

For an unsigned photo, do whatever you like.
