    Go for it! And share too!
    I know Rocky has one on his site that I have played with a few times, its free.
    My vote is for a more intricate pattern. Otherwise you would just have another simple check, with colors someone else has probably already done.

    Boy, you guys are an inspiring lot. Had a bit of time today (I know... rare) and got onto Scotsweb to see what I could come up with using only two colours but a more complex pattern.

    I decided to go with something a bit uncommon for the colours. I chose muted orange and light gray. It’s not as complex as I could have gone but I also wanted something that would be reasonably aesthetically pleasing (at least to my eye).

    So here’s what I came up with.

    My gut reaction to the second image you posted was, "durable, and if this were a shirt, I'd grab it first for a chilly day and expect it survive my rigorous lifestyle."

    Lol! True... true... it’s actually quite challenging working with just two colours.
