<DIV>I'm now re-entering the signs with drag and drop. The ones I have added are all the -1 signs. That way if I find variants, I can add -2 and -3 etc. I already have some variants in Sao Paulo and other regions.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I just added five signs today. Just double check that they are in the new SignMaker.</DIV>
