Favicon for signwriting,org

Mon Dec 22 00:50:57 UTC 2008

Hello Gerard -
We will work on creating better Favicons later...Thanks for bringing  
this issue up - very interesting!

Val ;-)

PS. Some day I hope to have our SignWriting Literature Archives listed  
under Search Engines, once we really have a search engine for it!

Like Google Books, or the Gutenberg Project, I hope we will someday  
have a real search engine for finding world literature written in the  
sign languages of the world ;-)) I noticed, like Favicons, there is a  
listing of search engines on the right of web browsers...I had always  
assumed it was just Google...I didn't realize there are other search  
engines you can go to there as well...so I learned more about browsers  
today thanks to you!
