It is so hard to resist an interesting project. It is an interesting sample of hand, wrist and finger movements. Hands move forward, down and in curves. We have brushing and contact. There are facial expressions and numbers. <br> <br>Valerie, which color do you prefer black or the orange of your sample?<br> <br>Thank you Stephan for your sample. I will use it as a basis.<br> <br>Stay in touch, it should be interesting! If a Canadian can animate a malta sign language using Sutton SignWriting system, it shows the universality of the system.<br> <br>André Lemyre</div></div></blockquote></div></div></body></html>________________________________________________
