How to sign cards

in Credit cards
I know this may sound silly, but I have yet to sign a card in a legible way. The space available is not sufficient, to material of the stripe to sign is too smooth, and with ball pens, the end results isn't as neat and clear as I would like it to be.
What do people usually use to sign their cards? Permanent soft-tip markers?
Thanks,
SX

Yeah i used a fine permanent soft-tip marker.
No complains when i am using it.
Plus you can at least see what you have signed.0 -
Just make sure the marker is not too thick. This might be used to 'hide' legimiate signatures.

My signature is nothing like real letters now; it's more of an instinctual thing. If I "think" about writing my signature, I "stutter". I'm looking forward to getting married so I can change my signature again.0

I have a real problem with this. I do loads of practice sigs on a sheet of paper first. Then sometimes I still screw it up! I agree that if you think about it you have problems. The strips are so small.0

I find the pens you buy for writing on blank cd's are great for signing credit cards. They have a fine tip and dry straight away. You can pick up a pack of 4 for 99p in a lot of places.Errrr...come back later0
