Tyger's New Ryan Ross Bonnet

[Mael Coluim]

So if someone were actually to commission a Ryan Ross bonnet / Tyger Forge 'RR' badge, would that be enough to get you two to collarorate and get moving (as opposed to spending potentially productive time typing on XMarks)?

Having wanted one of each (well, formerly buckle from Tyger Forge) but not having got around to it yet, maybe this is the right project.

The Ryan Ross ‘type’ bonnet and Tyger Forge buckles are available at the Scottish Tartans Museum Gift Shop, a advertiser on this forum. This thread has moved on from the original posts and title of a product review. It is temporarily closed while the moderators review it for possible violation of

Our policy on advertising, promotion and product reviews
Our members want access to a wide array of kilts and kilt related products and services. To provide this we have accepted paid advertising from companies who wish to advertise their products to our membership.

Any member of the forum who produces a kilt or kilt related product and who wishes to advertise on the forum will be directed to our advertising plan for details of our ad space and rates.

No other advertising will be allowed with the exceptions as listed in this policy.
The DIY Section is intended as a place to share ideas and accomplishments of items designed for personal use. It is not intended to be a "show room" for new products being introduced by any commercial enterprise.

The “For Sale” section of the forum is intended for private sales of items owned by our members. No product or service will be listed, or linked to, in the “For Sale” section by any Commercial Enterprise.

The posting of photos on the forum or in the "Photo Galleries" is intended for our members to show off their own, personally owned, kilts, accessories, and outfits. Posting photos of products for sale by any commercial enterprise other than paid advertisers is not allowed.

One of the functions of X Marks is to allow open and honest reviews of kilts, kilt accessories, and other kilt related products.

Product Reviews are the best way for new members to gain information about suppliers. We encourage our members to post Product Reviews. All reviews must be about a product purchased for the members own use. Product reviews must contain only verifiable factual information.

Negative product reviews are also encouraged as an important warning to other potential buyers, but the reviewer must be very careful not to denigrate or libel the manufacturer or supplier. Negative reviews must contain only verifiable factual information.

Any review of a product from one of our advertisers who have a dedicated section of the forum should be posted in the appropriate section.

Product Endorsements, while not prohibited, are not encouraged. We understand that everyone has their favorite supplier but endorsements often cross the line and become unauthorized advertisements. Any endorsement of a product must have the approval of the manufacturer or seller.

Endorsements must contain only verifiable factual information. Defining when a Product Endorsement crosses the line and becomes Advertising will rest solely with the Forum Moderators. For example: an endorsement made as a first post would be very suspicious.

Advertising
Our members want access to a wide array of kilts and kilt related products and services. To provide this we have accepted paid advertising from companies who wish to present their products to our membership.
Advertising is defined as:

"A form of communication used to encourage, persuade, drive or induce an audience to take or continue some action concerning a commercial offering. It can be used to change or reinforce consumer behavior or offer assurances to consumers. Advertising often involves repetition of an image or product name in an effort to associate certain qualities with the image or name.
Advertising does not always involve the direct sale of a good or service. An example would be the case of a public service announcement. If the result is an increase in awareness of a good or service it is advertising."

Any member of the forum who produces a kilt or kilt related product and who wishes to advertise on the forum will be directed to our advertising plan for details of our ad space and rates.

No other advertising will be allowed with the exceptions as listed in this policy.
