Digital BW, The Print

Digi negs work great with silver. I have a few prints in a gallery and they 
sell really good. They are even better because i used photoshop to improve 
the photo.
Like people said, chemicals is a disadvantage. Especially when i spill them 
on the bathroom floor and my wife is not too happy !!!
I usually do B&W work one a month. I print all my negs during the month and 
I have a stack of them. It costs me $12 in chemicals everytime + cost of 
paper. It's around 50 cents a sheet for fiber. A lot cheaper for resin 
coated.

But I honestly DON'T want to go back to the darkroom albeit my
ranting. And I really don't think digi negs work with silver prints.

And I'll pass on the small room conversions, thanks! :D
