If you burn too long you can loose fine details, obviously not long enough then the image goes away. 250 watt halogens work well. 250 watts x 2 bulbs = 10 min - Play with the distance a bit.

Right now, I do about a foot away for 10 minutes using 2 photo bulbs.

You will get a better clearer image.

When I emulsion a screen, I only emulsion the print side (back), but I've seen people emulsion both sides. What is the recommended way?
