Marks: Magic Pen reds are mandatory on every AP mid laner obviously.

Seals: These are probably the most debatable. Personally I use HP p/lvl because I don't feel any need at all to take Mana regen seals since I always rush a Chalice of Harmony. The HP p/lvl really pay off mid game as they'll be giving you about 100hp at level 10 and I can remember a handful of situations where I survived a jungle gank or an extra tower shot thanks to them. Armor seals would be more useful against a laner like Talon (in which case you shouldn't be playing Galio unless you got counterpicked) or a very DPS oriented team. All other seals are subpar for midlaners.

Glyphs: Magic Resist, duh! Galio is usually a counterpick to strong AP bursters or DoT mages so the more Magic Resist you have the merrier. Flat MR is fine, but I prefer the MR p/lvl. Abuse that passive son!

Quints: I use the Flat AP ones since I don't think any more defensive stats would make a difference here. AP is always good on any caster.

Build: Mine looks exactly like that, except I replace FoN with Abyssal Scepter. Makes all your spells hit harder and the MR from both items are very similar. I never build FoN on Galio to be honest. Also, if my team looks like it will require a stronger carry then I'd rather have Hourglass for Armor instead of FH. You lose some armor value and CD, but again Galio's damage is exponentially increased.
