Who is this actually for?
Sign language (most countries have a different one) users don't speak the same way as us non-sign language speakers do. They have their own grammar and ways of expressing themselves.
So a little unclear who the output of the site is useful for?
@samrye_enspiral . It is a good question. Who is it for?
I was thinking about a new way we can be introduced to the deaf alphabet. It has the American sign language (only the letters). I know that in sign language there are complex movements that mean a whole word, a full meaning, but this gives you the symbol for each letter for now... I believe is a small step towards learning a new language in the end.

Great product! My brother is deaf and he loves it. May I suggest you make the product for a whole page. And allow the user(my brother) be able to cut ad paste articles from the web that can be translated so he can enter and read whole pages.
@friendcentive_com Thanks and I am glad that your brother appreciate this work. It means a lot for me coming from a person like him.
Does he think translating full documents will make him read faster in sign language alphabet ?

In addition to what Sam said, it also seems weird because a lot of signs require movement of the hands and not just a static hand shape. I could potentially seeing gifs work but that would be chaotic to look at.
