Ingvild,

Yes, it will be possible to load signs from Sign Puddle into SignBank.

Not sure when, but it will happen.

Sorry for my last question - had not read thorughly. What I meant to ask, is
wether there is a possibility to load from SignMaker/ SignPudle into
SignBank.

Anyway, the work that is being done is great.
