Thanks! I know, but these are acrylic markers and PITT pen -- they don't fade.

Alcohol-dye based markers fade quickly; I use the Pitt pens too and they don't fade very easily, but the pigments are not listed. Even pro acrylics fade with exposure. The best have light fastness ratings right on the tube. For illustration, I'm not always concerned. If your putting it on the wall you might want to know more. Here's info if your interested:[link]

Agree. Though I only use black markers, and I even did lighfastness test. In this regard acrylic markers are the best choice. Most acrylics have Excellent lightfastness for the majority of the range with some colors (like Naphtol Red) are very good.

Right on; never put anything near the window myself. All colors lose intensity eventually. Nice exchanging ideas with you.
