I've read the various comments from various people about the design and placing 
of various symbols.

There is a very good rule of thumb that should be employed here:

Keep It Simple, Stupid! Show your diagram to someone who is not an expert - do 
they understand it?

And, in my opinion, if you have to add written instructions to your diagram - 
you haven't diagrammed it properly.

Anyone wishing to diagram clearly should, quite deliberately, try to emulate 
Nick Robinson, Robert Lang, Nicholas Terry and, if I may be allowed to blow my 
own trumpet, me.

Finally, I have a complete set of symbols that anyone is welcome to have and 
use - including my own "Collapse on the Indicated Creases" and "Right About 
There" symbols.  I can let you have them for Illustrator4 all the way up to CS4 
and as a basic svg. file. Just ask me off list.
