Hello there!

I'm interested in many different things; however, one of my stronger interests is in clothing and the history of Western costume, and I hope to contribute articles to the Wikipedia in these areas.

Useful links

Not very exciting for you, but useful for me:

• Technical section of the Village pump
• Getting pictures into articles:
  Wikipedia:Picture tutorial
  (because i can never remember exactly how).
