mobow... you're right; we've all got our own preferences. Nothing wrong with that a bit.

HCH... that's a good-looking jacket: kind of a mixture of what mobow and I were talking about... some hard edges, while others are softer. The thing that makes it look good to me isn't necessarily the "edges' but the fact that parts of it are really light-colored, while others are really dark-colored. That's what I mean when I refer to as contrast. The changes don't have to be abrupt, but there MUST be changes for it to be contrasting.

I think it's a t-shirt you've got on in your turkey-kill pic that looks good, too. Quality control must be getting better on that pattern, or either my local shop owner just got some bum patterns (to me) as an isolated event.
