Re: Hello all

Here's a shredded pair from the 80's that
I custom designed out of a book of patterns
they used to have. Sadly, these are
long gone as well. :(

Re: Hello all

Can anyone recommend a better photo sharing site than photobucket? Just can't stand the new format and I'm having issues with the compatibility with my older iBook. Anyway, here's the first pic.
