    Another Kilt Assignment

    I have yet another free choice assignment for my Computers class. I have decided to do a powerpoint presentation on kilts. I feel that my fellow students could do with a little education. It is only 5 minutes so it will be a breeze. My plan and outline is to give an overview of kilt types. Trad, semi trad, casual, great kilt, military. . . . and then the accessories that go along with the kilt. Now
    I need lots of pictures for this of the different types of kilts and pleating and all that glorious kilt stuff and I figured why not ask the X markers crew if I can use some of theirs. Rather than trying to PM everyone for permission to use their pics (i know it may seem rather silly to ask permission but I just feel like its necessary) I figured that if you have some pics that you wouldnt mind me using then please post them here. Here is a list of what I am looking for.

    1. A 16 oz handsewn tank. Pleat shot included please
    2. Semi-traditional, again pleats please
    3. Military kilt, 22 oz? again with pleats
    4. Matt Newsome kilt " "
    5. A great kilt, maybe some different wearing styles with the extra plaid
    6. Full PC and Argyle outfit
    7. Couple of different style sporran pics

    That is all that comes to mind but feel free to post anything else you feel might aid me. I appreciate any and all contributions. I will be giving the presentation in my SWK MacLeod hunting. Also, if you think that any information would be "necessary" for educating my classmates that I am missing, let me know. Many thanks!

    I wish I could tell you I had a Newsome, but I've still a couple more weeks. I think Jonesing gets worse at the end.

    I have a ton of great kilt pics - I'll send you a private email with a bunch of attachments. Most of them have been posted here in one thread or another, but it would take awhile to find them.

    If you still need pics of a 22 oz military kilt, let me know, and I'll have my wife help me snap some pics of my Canadian surplus Black Watch.

    Heck, I bet if you ask real nice, you'll get volunteer models to display the different types. Never mind the powerpoint.

    Unfortunatley all I own are SWK's so far so i dont have many kilts for live modeling.

    Thanks again to all who have contributed and special thanks to Barb for all the wonderful pics in my e-mail!
