Heel View

[Charles Butler]

I like the heel view as it dates back to the very earliest days of Sign Writing.  It's clear.  I can read the first, but it looks like a mixed sign.

I know what you mean. I wasn't at first either, but the reason I know it better now is because I have been making pictures of every handshape in the ISWA. When you see the pictures of how the heel view works, it will make a lot more sense. I am hoping that I will have them all done and up on the web before the end of this summer. I have done groups 1-4 which are all up on the web. I have also taken photos for all of the other handshapes. Now I am just putting all of them together. The future is exciting. ;-)

Hi,
I personally prefer the top view, mostly because 
I'm not that comfortable reading the heel viws (yet, anyway).

  Subject: [sw-l] Sign for SignPuddle
  
I am in San Diego with Valerie doing various work. We were 
  talking about a sign for SignPuddle in ASL, and I came up with two versions of 
  writing the same sign. Essentially it mean to throw signs together in one 
  place. I felt that was more accurate to what SignPuddle means than to say an 
  actual rain puddle since the meaning here is more a collecting of signs rather 
  than raindrops into a puddle. Now the reason for the two versions is because I 
  wanted to try out how it reads with the top view verses the heel 
  view. I personally like the look and feel of the heel view. What do you all 
  think? Here are the two versions, first with the second part of the sign in 
  top view and then in heel view. Or you can go to SignPuddle and find them 
  at http://www.signbank.org/SignPuddle1.5/searchword.php?ui=1&sgn=4&sid=10105,10106&search=signpuddle&type=any
