SignPuddle can be used like a Paint program too, to construct  
temporary symbols, until they are added to the IMWA to become  
official symbols.

Constructed symbols cannot be searched for, in the "Search by  
Symbols" section of SignPuddle, like official symbols can, but they  
are still perfectly readable from the readers' point of view...so you  
will have the signs look the way you want them to look...inside  
SignPuddle...without ever needing another Paint Program.


HOW TO CONSTRUCT TEMPORARY SYMBOLS IN SIGNPUDDLE

1. Go to SignMaker.
2. Click on the Limbs...the lines you use for arms and legs
3. Drag one line at a time over to the SignBox, constructing straight  
lines that way...continued next message...
