Sounds like fun.

If you're serious, we should talk.
Do you have the files for running
Arrowbridge II?  There are seven
ANSI pics in that, some of them
have text which I've converted to
Esperanto.

I can do some conversion between ASCII and ANSI that would be tough for lots
of people, and I can modify existing pics of both sorts, but I'm not as
practiced at gernerating large scale original pics.  I'll let you do any
freehand ASL or fingerspelling images for a first draft, then I can help you
polish them into shaape.

Oh, if you want to translate the entire rules file for AB2 into ASCII pics of
ASL?  I'll cheer you on, and good luch with that.  It's about 60k.  I *could*
maybe be talked into doing doing to dress that up, but it would requre making
a major project of it again, and somebody else to do the first draft.
