It is an amazing collection of free symbols and software. Take a look and share it with everyone!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979574005291673681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591160441112823297.post-12245284766704178182012-08-06T15:39:40.554-04:002012-08-06T15:39:40.554-04:00Yes, yes, a million times yes!

It is a right that everyone has at birth; it should not cost extra for some people. I love the idea of BSU students being a driving force in making a symbol set bank, which can be added to as needed.Jessicahttp://nanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591160441112823297.post-91986668662051112982012-08-02T18:19:28.825-04:002012-08-02T18:19:28.825-04:00Making sure people with disabilities are included ...Making sure people with disabilities are included in this process is critical.

After all the ones who know best which symbols work are those who use them. I think it is unfair of the companies who created these symbols that they charge for them, they are making money on the product and the software, let everyone gt at the ymbols!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067458513200094607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591160441112823297.post-64201381620375767612012-07-31T17:39:48.608-04:002012-07-31T17:39:48.608-04:00I agree that the students and faculty could do thi...I agree that the students and faculty could do this. It would make for an incredible community service project that would serve many people. It should be a public bank where people can add to it. No one should have to pay to speak. <br />PattyPattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979574005291673681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591160441112823297.post-57702224440095949192012-07-30T19:55:22.671-04:002012-07-30T19:55:22.671-04:00Facebook was developed by an everyday joe-shoe..

What an awesome project to be involved in and get your name out there attached to such a NEEDED point of access!Alc717https://www.blogger.com/profile/02136362921465604269noreply@blogger.com
