Dunno - I would get everyone to sign with a fat black sharpie on an 8x10 sheet. 
 Tell them to sign big.  Then scan that in.  From there, take it into 
illustrator/corel draw and have it create vector art using the "live trace" 
tool.  Clean & delete any stray marks.

From there, bring it into Design shop and see how the auto digitizing works.  I 
would think that satin stich columns would look best.

Anyway, that's probably how I'd give it a shot.  Getting a good scanable 
signature (big and fat) is gonna be key.

Another way would be to approach it as a "full jacket back".  Get the 
dimensions you want the design to be, aquire a piece of paper or even 
posterboard in that size and tell eveyone to sign it - keeping the signatures 
large and spread out.

Then scan it in (probably would have to do it in pieces) and send it off to a 
digitizer as a full jacket design.  You might even consult the digitizer how 
best to do this to keep the cost down.

Either way, I hope you are getting a fair chunk of change for this, as it's 
going to take a lot of time.
