    Default any idea for international "no line dance allowed" sign?

    **** please take this thread ironically****

    Hello,
    I am a friend of countrymusic, but I feel, that there is sometimes a little bit too much line dance around here.
    So I tried to make a sign (pictograph) that could be use by international firms or public institutions to prevent all that cowboys and -girls form linedancing while waiting for something. (Some parts of the sign are taken from another vectors).
    I am satisfied with the result so far, but I really would like to see that sign using those international used schematic people drawings/stick guys, as used for all that public toilets or as hint for handicapped people -you know, what I mean?
    Is someone here, that could do such black stick-guy with cowboy-hat, doing line dance, so the sign could become a true international one in the future?

    thanks for helping!

    I like your image best Holger. I put together some standard symbol clipart and it does not convey the idea of line dancing.

    yes, standard symbols does not work properly. I had the hope, that someone could create/suggest a new line dancer standard pictograph in the kind of the symbols you have used.

    You did it very well. I totally agree. And while you're at it, can you do one for No Facebook?

    feel I should point out that internationally speaking, especially outside of the english speaking world, line dancing often does not have anything at all to do with country music or cowwranglers of any persuasion

    but I am in empathy with the sentiment

    I am sure somewhere we have a 'no morris dancing' sign, but thats probably not going to help, I know we have a 'no lap dancing' .. but ditto

    'no line dancing' appears to have passed us by ....

    About year ago, you were looking for an International Inclusive Society Symbol/Logo?
    international symbol (pictograph) for “inclusive society”- your ideas please!

    If I could ask...
    What was the outcome?
    What happened?
    Come on. Tell us all about it.

    I am sure somewhere we have a 'no morris dancing' sign,
    We're currently reading a book by a British author and journalist, Howard Jacobson. The book is a series of articles written for the Independent. I read with my iPad next to me so I can look up things as I read about them and so I watched a YouTube video on Morris Dancing. It was so Monty Python, except it was Monty Python well before there ever was a Monty Python.
