NEW ISWA SYMBOLS

This might be useful for writing dance or sign language...

In these two examples attached, the upper body turns to the corner.  
The darker section of the shoulder line shows the shoulder that is  
closest to the reader. The darker section of the facial circle or  
head, shows the side of the face (or ear) that is closest to the  
reader...the head is looking in the same direction of the shoulders in  
this attached example...

So with a little darker line, you can show the part of the body that  
is closest to the reader when facing a corner...

You can find these symbols in SignPuddle, under heads and shoulders...

They have given us more choices when writing... The heads with the  
darker rim are opening up new ways to show heads turning to the  
corner, even when the shoulders are not turning to the corner too...I  
can show you examples of that later...
