I wanted to see if anyone would be willing to share some photos of different fret markers they have done.
Anything from dots to rectangles to custom shapes to none. Just something I was thinking about and couldn't find too many photos in the archives, so I hoped we could have a small collection here. Thanks in advance for sharing.

Sorry, j, they're not closeups. One rectangles, one none. I like none
myself.

Well I have no pictures of anything other than the typical marker set up or vines you have already seen of mine, here at work, but here is two different projects I have coming up in a cad drawing.

The first is a Art Nouveau project inspired by a John Greven inlay. Just re-shaped a bit to git my fretboard shape. The vine will be White figured MOP and the leafs and berries will be Gold MOP

The second is a simple but stealthy set up 2mm MOP dots 1/8 off lower edge at 3-9 and upper edge 15-19. The 12 hyas the dots at both edges. This is so non-distracting from the wood on the board it is almost invisible.

Kevin has some nice block inlays in the "Black Inlay Material" thread too.
