Hi Shane,

I saw you sent your message from your iPad. I tried to use
SignPuddle on the iPad. It works to read signs in the
dictionary. However I didn't manage to write signs in
SignMaker, because on the iPad you can't use drag&drop in
the internet browser, so you can't move the handsymbols
etc. around.

Have you or anyone else possibly tried this and find a
solution?

Thanks,

Suzanne
