Those are fab! I especially like the Cheetah Girls one and how you have the concert ticket stubs with your autograph, hehe.

Yep. "keep them out of direct sunlight. The sun, over time, will yellow the cover and fade the autograph."

They look good,i like when things match and all the frames are the same,what size are the frames ? You are gonna need a lot of wall space .

These look pretty good. They're very happy.

Yeah, if you want them to last for a long time, in addition to keeping them out of direct sunlight and humidity, make sure you mount them on acid-free backing board, use acid-free tape (like linen tape), and don't let the autographs touch the glass. You may want to consider matting them in the future to preserve them better.

But The Frames ARE Glass....So Without Having To Remove All The Photos How Could I Still Preserve Them?

If, as I suspect, you used improper materials to mount these images, then you're going to have to remove them from the frames and start over. If you've already taped them down, remove the tape as carefully as possible. If you've glued them -- well, I don't know. Maybe someone can chime in here with a solution. But if you haven't used preservation materials in these displays (acid-free everything, in other words), then you run the risk of these autographs yellowing or fading in the future. All this info is in one of the stickied threads. Anyone who wants to display their autographs in a frame for a lifetime really should read them. But for those who expect they'll lose interest later, just taping them up on cardboard or whatever is fine.

Art framing store is best. Otherwise try a craft store, but make sure everything is clearly labeled acid-free.
