If those box frames aren't UV protective, I'd
look into ones that are. Also, you said that
they're plastic. Not all plastics are acid-free,
another thing that's recommended when framing
cels.
As for the light issue. . . I have two cels
framed on my wall. *No* natural light hits them.
They are both behind UV protective glass. The one
of Clary is fine. The one of Keith has begun to
line fade. . . I've since learned that Psychic
Force cels are *very* prone to line-fading in a
way that other cels don't seem to be. For the
cels you have framed, you might want to find
other fans of those shows - ask them what their
experience has been with line fading in that
show's cels. Another thing I did was (before I
framed them) take a very up close, high DPI scan
of the two cels I have framed. Now and again, I
compare the cel to the scan to better keep track
of how the cel is doing.
