hi! do you make these icons yourself?
also i was wondering if it would be okay to use them, with credit to you?
I do! I use Scetch (an app no longer in the app store (I've had the same phone for 6 and a half years)). First, I look at various sources (typically SigningSavvy, Lifeprint, ASLDeafined), then decide how I'm going to depict the sign.
It depends. I don't want people to use them like a learning tool because ASL is a 4 dimensional language and I use a 2 dimensional space. What would you want to use them for?
