Although I have not seen the video, if it were my choice, I would not write the down-diagonal hand position with a diagonal line across the hand to show the diagonal position dipping partially down. I would assume the sign will be read without the added detail of the down-diagonal hand position, and it is too much detail to write down-diagonal hand positions for everyday use… the simpler the better…</div><div><br></div><div>And as you can see, I chose to write the left hand from the Front View and not the Top View…I think it is easier to read that way as well - </div><div><br></div><div>But there are always other ways to write the same sign, so if you have other ways to write it, feel free to post it -</div><div><br></div><div>I need to look at the video again - for some reason, on the video, I saw one sign after the other, but not the one we are trying to write - I suspect that must have been a computer glitch here, since you all saw the video easily -</div><div><br></div><div>For example, Stefan mentions that it starts out as a Flat Hand and not a Spread Five Hand - so that I did not realize -</div><div><br></div><div>So Dali, with our three-way conversation here, I think you can read the different ideas from the three of us, and you can choose to write it as you wish -</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for sharing with us!</div><div><br></div><div>Val ;-)</div><div><br></div><div>--------</div><div><br><div><div>On Dec 29, 2013, at 6:34 AM, Charles Butler <<a href="mailto:chazzer3332000@YAHOO.COM">chazzer3332000@YAHOO.COM</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div><div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: tahoma, 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div><span>I looked at the left hand again and it starts out pointing diagonally down and to the right as a flat hand, I can easily do across and to the right on a diagonal but I'm not sure how to show the diagonal forward and down.
