Christmas Party Attire

OK, here's my first attempt at wearing the kilt in public....to my college, staff Christmas party, which had close to 500 people present. I was the talk of the event, and in a good way! Unfortunately, my semi-dress sporran did not arrive, so this was the getup! Comments anyone??? Hope this gets posted!!???

You need to have a URL in front of the image name.
I'm looking forward to seeing this pic!

I see what you are doing, you can not host the photo on your computer. The best thing to do is to upload the photo to a site like photobucket it's free, once your photo is uploaded to photobucket you will be able to post it here. If you need any other help with it let me know I'll be happy to help you out with it.

The other way is to upload it into you own photo album on xmarks, then when you open that photo full size it will list a direct link you can copy and paste into your post.

If you look under your photo there are some different codes the one you want to use is the [IMG]
code, you can copy it from there and paste it here.

I do remember when I first stated and had problems loading photos, I'm glad I could help.

I think you look sharp. I would like some more info on your head gear. I am looking into getting something in the way of headgear for myself. I am just clueless as to which way to go. I hear flat caps are very becoming...
