Oh this is wonderful! An entire section just on tartans! I never realized there were SO MANY tartans!!

I just can't believe it. If I someday have lots and lots of money I can wear wonderfully colorful kilts!

Anyway, confusion has set in. You guys are sending me links to different web sites to look at kilts and....well....

Let's say that I am looking at these tartans and trying to figure out what I want to WEAR, wouldn't you expect the pictures to be somewhat accurate??

Here are two web sites that show the Chicago tartan:

http://www.tartans.scotland.net/tart...tartan_id=1195

Now....is that the same tartan and the picture of one is just not accurate? They both say they are the University of Chicago so I'm really confused.

In like fashion, here are two examples of the Illinois tartan:

http://www.tartansauthority.com/web/...rtan=By+Tartan
http://www.tartans.scotland.net/tart...tartan_id=1171

Now, both of these say they are Illinois and St. Andrews Society Corporate

In each case the tartan sounds like the same thing but when I view them from these different web sites they appear to be totally different.

Help me out, I'm confused!! :confused:
