Hello Everyone!
Lots of great messages today. I look forward to answering them...smile..

Barbara, regarding color...That is only one of many ways to write  
dialogues and it is not a requirement at all...But if you choose to  
use it, then maybe your documents can be read on computer screens,  
instead of printed? Color is free on your computer screen!

And although we could always get colored symbols by using a Paint  
program, now with the Color feature in SignPuddle, that does some of  
the standard coloring that we established years ago for educating  
Deaf children automatically, we can create color documents faster,  
which I am grateful for...

Have you seen the standard colors we use for Deaf children?... These  
diagrams attached are from a document for children. We used color to  
establish the kinds of symbols used...which was a great teaching tool...
