Yeah, Sharpie only do a silver at the moment.  There are some gold and silver pens about that look like Sharpies but are not.  These are crap and take ages to dry.
SM did say that they bought a load of silver Sharpies from America, so I hope so.

Just a word of warning the Silver Sharpies take ages to dry. A friend brought us over a whole collection of different coloured ones from the States (so we have our own) but they aren't instant dry like the normal black and blue ones.

How long do you reckon they take to dry a few seconds or are we talking minutes?

LOL!  Well you know our Billy!  

I have this picture thats like February on my LotR calender or something and its of the four hobbits and I'm thinking I might cut it out and use that for my signings... but the problem is... its has the January calender bit on the back!  With some very emabrassing things on... stuff like "Period due" and things!!!!! lol!  I dont know whether to use it!  The picture is soooo gorgous though!
I always knew Viggo had good taste, you know.  Never go for the kind of dark brown dark beard you know, but strawberry blonde is something that really brings out her skin texture. ~Dom on Viggo's bearded lady love

She's a woman, so I get that out of her, but she's also bearded which means I can kind of... I can get a different kind of spin on things.  And you know, thats fine.  Viggo's an artist and he can do whatever he wants.  It's not really going to float my boat, but I'm not going to say anything against it.  You just keep on trucking Viggo. ~ More Dom on Viggo's bearded lady love

I mean... one could but perhaps shouldn't delve into a few of his... stranger episodes.  But I'll save that.  ~Viggo's attempt at revenge for bearded lady love.

Thats great.  He's gonna kick the f...k out of me for that one. ~Dom reflecting on telling of bearded lady love.

Hey!  Maybe I could stick the picture on some cardboard or something... so they couldn't see the other side?  I love the picture though!  Its brilliant!

Erm I mean ages.....

Hubby tested his one out on an old 10x8 photo and a good couple of hours later it still smudged. Ok - he had to apply pressure to it but it still fuzzed a bit at the edges.

If you do have anything signed in Silver Sharpie then make sure you don't touch it, allow it to dry for a couple of minutes and try not to put anything on top of it when putting it away :)

Silver Sharpies are silver ink coloured Sharpie pens.

Basically Sharpies are THE pen to use when getting autographs as they are very very permanent. :)
