Exept, of course, that Adam's is so easily readable that if you know it is supposed to be the sign for 'peacock', you may not even notice that the arrow is written single-stemmed when it should have been double-stemmed - sorry all

Agreed - Adam's is easy to read, while you would have to think for a while (and change the palm facing) to read the original one

Not doable at all, as far as I can see... the palm facing of the fist is just wrong.  But I prefer Adam's writing, myself.

Now that is clear.  I guess we need that variant in the SignPuddle now as the first one is simply not easily doable.

I'm trying to understand this sign.  I'm not sure where the surfaces are; and I don't seem to be able to duplicate this sign.
