    Yep, I have been following this thread from the start as I have been lurking. It has been humorous and occasionally educational. But lately I've been reading experts quibbling over minutia. Frankly, if the experts don't agree then no one can get it right. Then the whole discussion becomes silly and pointless.

    The "do's" have been great. Many of the don'ts have been humorous and weird (the "Uni-kilt" being the weirdest). But some of the "don'ts" have been just nit-picking. Like the bloke at the left of the goth-girl picture. Even I could see what was "wrong", be he still looks OK to me. Maybe there should be a distinction between intentional "don'ts" and unintentional "don'ts".

    Here's an example. I'm sure the experts here can find many things wrong with this picture. But I'm sure that Mr McGregor is aware of them, but he does it "wrong" anyway. Despite him being "wrong", some people would say it still looks right. (My wife thinks he looks "all-right" .)
