Yes, I agree. I did see the thumb as well, but first I am curious  
about the palm facing for the other handshapes too...Adam's video  
showed a different palm facing there as well, but yes...when it comes  
to thumbs...I personally enjoy using the thumb with the dot, to show  
touching the head with the thumb...other people prefer other  
variations on that handshape ;-))

So there actually could be several ways to write that sign, depending  
on the palm facing and the preference of the writer...

So Jorge, on the the sign for GREY, where does the palm face....toward  
the body? or toward the floor?

Val ;-)
