What's your tartan avatar?

I think longshadows was asking for those with tartan avatars. :mrgreen: Not that there's anything wrong with the others!

Mine is the MacIan tartan, chosen because my closest Scottish link was my dad's mother who was a McKean, a variation of MacIan.

Ohhhhh, I see. Tartan avatars...

I'm wearing the Black Watch, and my lovely wife, the Robertson Red.

How's that?

Here is a link to the tartan in my avatar:-

I obtained the avatar by scanning the apron of my kilt. The computer generated image in the above link, doesn't quite look the same as it does in the flesh.

Yes, I did began my posting about tartan "avatars," but decided that it might be interesting to allow for others. (Some, like me, may not use a tartan as their avatar since their particular tartan "swatch" does not render well in such a small space.)

Then I went on and threw out that huge image of the Maine State tartan, which is not my avatar. So, I'd say, as long as the site moderators don't mind and the bandwidth can handle it, let's look at all sorts of interesting tartans.

If your tartan has a story, I invite you to relate it.
