TFs vs. Sunlight

No, I don't mean the detergent. I recently moved, and my new house is a split level, so the basement has full sized windows. I have been thinking of ways to block out the sun, besides straight up boarding over the window.

Does anyone have any issues with sunlight in their TF display area? Possible creative solutions?

Re: TFs vs. Sunlight

UV radiation is what yellows plastic. I think there's a UV blocking film that you can put on the windows. Combine that with curtains and I think you'll be ok.

Ya, you could just put the UV filters on your display case if it's glass. Or do the windows.
