Scotweb Tartan Designer now FREE of restrictions

[BEEDEE]

Nick, as Kilted Knome has said - "that is very generous action" and as one of the early users of your program I thank you very much. Do you plan to have the restriction lifted on the tartans registered with the Scottish Register of Tartans?

Three cheers for Dr Nick!
Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
What effect this will have on the tartans I have designed, I am not sure. Out of loyalty to you, I certainly would like you to weave some of them (particularly those I have designed for my own family).
And for quality woollen kilts (“tanks”) I doubt that I will find a weaver in South Africa who would provide anything like an equivalent product.
But some interest in certain of my designs has been expressed by a South African company, and I would like to see some of the generic South African designs woven in this country.
Regards,
Mike

Great news indeed! I haven't used the Scotweb tartan designer for a while. I shall have to give it a spin.

Great news for all.

I notified the Register team about the change of policy a couple of days ago. It certainly applies retrospectively, but I can't say whether they'll update existing records or not.
