Digital BW, The Print

First off thanks to all the posters and the hosts. The free sharing
of information spells out community. It's great to have a tool like this that is
non-commercial and has the interest of the photographer (and artist) at heart.

Paul Roarke and his web site have been most helpful, this Yahoo
Group, and David Brooks who published an extremely useful article called "B 
And W Negative Scanning: A Step By Step, Easy Way to Quality Images". Not
to mention many others and their sites out there.

My question is not about silver vs digital or artist vs.
photographer, but pencil vs pen.

As I am about to produce a limited edition print and it will be
numbered and signed, what is the experience of others regarding this. I found
something in one book but the opinion of many experienced pros over one is 
always preferred. What is your found and preferred way of signing, mostly in
regards to tool (pencil, pen, jet-inked pen) but other related comments are
invited.

Thanks,
Craig Snyder
