[Sw-l] Additional Handshapes

The first one is actually what I was thinking. This is a construction of two symbols, correct? BaseSymbol 1 & BaseSymbol 258?

 + 

The second one actually has the index and middle fingers crossing in addition to what your handshape has. I found that this handshape is the closest, but the thumb is not extended to the side.



If you wanted to have the thumb to the side, the handshape would have to be constructed completely. I am not sure what would constitute as close enough for this person’s purposes because it seems they are doing some detailed research. At least that is my guess.

If we can find ones that are already in the ISWA 2010 that are close, then maybe we can teach how to construct what is needed? I appreciate your help everyone -

He said that the handshapes are from SignWriting and I can contact SignWriting directly about adding handshapes. I would like to know if new handshapes will be added in the near future and if it is possible to add the 2 handshapes in the attached pictures so that they can be included in SooSL. The second one which may be difficult to identify is an index middle cross hinge, thumb side.
