Don't despair if you don't have a printer or ink to print patterns off the net. Tape a sheet of paper to the top of your screen, and trace the pattern with a pencil. I have done this many, many times, and am well pleased with the results.
What in the world are you tracing and with what kind of marker, the thin tipped school markers? The markers on plastic theme covers or tracing paper should never scratch because they are felt. It sounds like a workable plan if done carefully. It would certainly work on non-LCD screens, right? God bless you. : )
Ok, so you put window glass or a piece of thick see-through plastic over the screen. I think it's still a good idea, maybe because my printer needs ink.
I think that sounds like a terrible idea, especially with the new LCD screens. You don't put your fingers on it, munch less a pencil. I gently wiped a gnat type insect off my LCD it scratched!
Perhaps you are using the old crt tube with glass.
Buying a printer is much cheaper than replacing a damaged screen.
