Hello Adelaide!

I agree with Jonathan that this is truly an exciting project - I love the look of the design and I am amazed - Thank you for doing this project -

I have not had the time to test it yet. I am happy that Jonathan gave you feedback so fast - thank you Jonathan -

And I hope to test it soon - but the looks of the graphics is really beautiful - 

So you will hear more from me soon - I hope others on the SignWriting List will test it too -

Val ;-)

Just to let you know that it´s intuitive for many symbols but not so much for others, that´s why for some symbols in my program I just show a list to choose the rotation, but of course being in a circle doesn't really make it any worse for those either.  I really like how the circle appears afterward and is a big space saver on the screen.

>> Hi all, I'm Adelaide, an italian student of graphic design in Urbino. For my master thesis I've designed a mobile user interface to writing in SignWriting and I'm looking for some feedbacks, can you help me? New mobile technologies allowed me to create a personalized keyboard with SW glyphs, and I would also add the prediction text technology (like t9) in the application, to complete faster the writing of the signs and to organize the glyphs in two dimensions. It's very hard to explain my thesis project in few lines, sorry! Unfortunately I'm not a programmer so my prototype isn't fully working, you can only write a word: house. So I ask you trying to write “house” with my application and than tell me if you'll notice any problem both in structure and in design. The application is designed for iPhone for this reason some icons will be more familiar to iOS users, but it will still be testable for everybody. This is the link of prototype: http://invis.io/AJ23UG0U8 <http://invis.io/AJ23UG0U8> That's gonna take you just a few minutes to help me out with this testing, and I will be very grateful if you could! Thanks a lot in advance, Adelaide Imperato ________________________________________________
