Hello Maria!
When you say a "text email" I assume you mean that you were able to  
send a SignMail...an email in SignWriting symbols that you wrote it  
SignText and then sent...

I am glad! It is fun to do. Want to send an email in Maltese Sign  
Language to our SignWriting List? I would love to see it...;-)

Regarding SignBank...have you downloaded SignBank software? As you  
know, SignBank is a different program than SignPuddle...

SignPuddle Software
http://www.SignBank.org/signpuddle

and

SignBank Software
http://www.SignBank.org/signbank.html

The way to export signs from SignPuddle and then import them into  
SignBank is a very specific instruction...The instructions are in the  
SignPuddle Manual. Go to Section 60...the last chapter in the  
Manual....it is on page 85 to 86. That will teach you how to Export  
the signs...then you will need to open SignBank, and then open the  
SignBank Editor and import the signs into SignBank...there are  
instructions in the SignBank manual as well...

You are always welcome to telephone me at US 858-456-0098, or we can  
even Skype together, and I can teach you how to do this in person if  
that will help...my Skype name is valeriesutton

You do not need to work with SWML to export signs to SignBank...I have  
no clue how to use SWML and I export to SignBank all the time!
