    New Site Stuff...

    New feature on our site: Check out the new info for each tartan in our tartan galleries!

    http://www.usakilts.com/casual_kilts.php

    I'm aware of the few small bugs and I'm having our web guy address them (not being able to scroll down on a few and 2 not having ANY desrtiption and not having the 3 NEW PV tartans listed in the choices for kilts). Should be fixed within 48 hours.

    Also.... we added 3 new tartans to the Casual and Semi Trad galleries... American Heritage, MacPherson Hntg, and MacIntyre.

    Wow, what a great educational tool, Rocky (and Kelly). Great work. That will be a huge bonus to new, and old, kiltwears looking to learn about the tartan they are ordering.

    Very nice additions Rocky, looking forward to more.

    That's kind of the idea... give people more of a "connection" to the tartan as well as give them a small research tool.

    And BTW... I take FULL credit for this one. I came up with the idea and I'm the one who stayed here late typing in EVERY SINGLE CLAN SEPT NAME you see on each tartan. MAN that was a long night.

    Great looking stuff Rocky. I have a quick question only a bit off topic. I went to the House of Tartan and I found about 13 different variances to the Buchanan Tartan. I do understand the differences between the hunting and the dress, but how does someone choose which tartan is appropriate, if they are trying to wear one of them? I read the notes you had at the bottom of the picture for the Buchanan tartan, and I was just wondering why that one was chosen over any of the others. There are multiple options for many of the tartans out there, based on the year they were created, but which one is "right" to wear or are they all good?

    Great idea, Rocky.

    Have you always had Campbell of Cawdor available? I hadn't noticed it until you correctly Id'd it as the Argyll District tartan, which is on my wish list.

    Best regards,

    Jake
