   Tis true; I'd recommend services for this now ask sit down signers to   
   put first/last names on personalized photos. There's no doubting that.   
   However, on ones like autographpros, they show the custom guitars   
   signed and that's not an every day product, so I think it works for   
   them.   
      
   If you have 5 graphs being signed of the same photos, videotaping   
   isn't going to help, but maybe it's better than nothing at all.
