I used the small arrowheads for opening and closing, even if I know that they
are ment for knucles. Full double stemmed arrows did not seem to fit. Those
used here are for movement of chin:<br>
<br>

<br>
Actually, I do not know if we do have a convention for writing opening or
closing of the mouth - I know we do have for moving the lips in or out. If we
do not have such a convention, I would like to propose that we use the same
symbols as we use for the opening/ closing of the knucles, as I did in this
writing:<br>

<br>
The movement of the mouth, very fast opening-closing, goes in step with the
movement of the rigt hand - very fast down-up. <br>
<br>
Is the writng with two mouth symbols more clear than the writng with three
mouth symbols?<br>

three. I prefer the two Mouth Positions, if I have understood it correctly,
that there are two arrows for the hand movement …one going down and then up
again. When I read this, I assume that the first open Mouth Position goes with
the first movement of the hand, and the second Mouth Position happens on the
second movement of the hand - this way I know what is happening during the
movement…so this works for me as a reader - Does this seem correct to you?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Of course, the convention states 'opening to written configuration, closing to
written configuration', so the starting configuration is not strictly necessary<br>
Personally, I do not think this is as clear - but less work.<br>

I liked the way to stack face circles - now I have retried to write a sign
that I did try a while ago to get response to.<br>

This sign is done very fast, and the right hand has some force in the
movement. The sign means something like 'imediately', 'speedily', 'at
once', 'suddenly', 'NOW!'.<br>
<br>
I wonder if this is readable?<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Regarding writing down in vertical columns, I agree
that the feeling of the changing mouth movements feels like it should be
written down, since the reading of the entire document is going down…and
likewise, when reading a document from left to right, writing the changing
facial expressions from left to right makes sense for the reading direction…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>I like Natasha's writing of the sign for FINISH and
Adam's too…it is true that when we use the Head symbol with the top off the
top of the head, it gives us a way to place one face over the other in an
interesting stack - to find that symbol, go to the Heads, and under the first
group in Heads is a Head Symbol that does not have the top on, so we can
stack more facial features into one Head symbol…Adam used that to superimpose
one head on the other in his example below…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt'>Now, below I have placed an idea...this is only an
experiment - I have never shared this with anyone before, but what about the
idea of stacking mouth symbols within one head symbol? It may look ridiculous
and I will not mind if you tell me so! (smile)…take a look at this idea
attached…the Head Circle without the top on it, would be a requirement so we
know we are stacking Facial features…we would know that those are two Mouth
Positions stacked within one Head Circle, because the top of the Head circle
is not there - this would only work for two positions or maybe three at the
most -<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

looked at it more closely. I think you want to have the finishing mouth to be

I (think) I attached a writing of the sign "finish" with vertical
heads. I like the<span class=ecxapple-converted-space> </span><br>
simplicity of showing the initial handshape with movement only. What do
you<span class=ecxapple-converted-space> </span><br>
think?<br>
<br>
Also, is there a lesson page that describes or shows pictures of all the face
and<span class=ecxapple-converted-space> </span><br>
mouth symbols available in the SignMaker on SignPuddle? I'm not sure
what some<span class=ecxapple-converted-space> </span><br>
of the symbols represent. There is an older, online set of written
lessons I have<span class=ecxapple-converted-space> </span><br>
found, but it doesn't include everything available in the SignMaker pallette.<br>
