I know I'm a little late to this discussion. When I draft my civil
engineering plans I have rules I follow and one of them is to avoid
lines that cross unnecessarily, as it can get confusing. I know this
doesn't necessarily apply to languages (or we'd be without or "t's,")
but I just couldn't resist this:<br>

prefer the first one! :-) And thanks again to everyone who made
comments and suggestions yesterday - I really appreciate them.

Here are my two best suggestions for rewriting my name sign... I
personally like the first one best. Our discussion on the list got me
re-evaluating how I see the sign... I always look at it from the top,
so I think the top-view handshapes are the most appropriate. I may
have used the wrong rotation symbol again on the second sign... I'm
not sure... but those are the more appropriate palm facings if you're
looking at it from the front view. (I think...) ;-)

Hello Kelly Jo!
<br>
<br>
and hello to Stefan, Charles, Anny, Adam and everyone who contributed
yesterday ;-)
<br>
<br>
Thank you for this message, Kelly Jo, showing us the new versions of
your name sign!
<br>
<br>
And thanks to everyone yesterday for a lively and interesting
discussion...I really enjoyed it ;-)
<br>
<br>
I appreciate everyone's comments and I learned from them ;-)
<br>
<br>
For me ... I like your two new versions (see pasted below)... The palm
facing is much easier to read for me ;-)
<br>
<br>
The white palm is what is seen from the Front View in the second one,
and the first one is showing the overhead view of the white palm as
the second ending position of the J movement ...and the rotation
symbols are good too ;-) For me these are easier to read and produce!!

If the second one is showing the beginning position of the J movement,
then normally, the Rotation Symbol would be placed after the beginning
position...like this...(see below)...which is similar to the standard
way we write J when we are writing just fingerspelling...but I am not
asking you to change anything...just giving you feedback, and whatever
you choose is fine...:-)
