Yes...

Here is an example of two Swiss-German signs from the storytelling of  
Noah. I wanted to place all three facial expressions on top of each  
other, making one facial circle per sign with all that information,  
but at the moment the symbols collide with each other inside the  
facial circle...so they had to be separated out...

And all this is meaningful...I can make some adjusting in my re- 
vamping of the ISWA to solve some of these issues...
