Hello all,

A few days ago, Manton posted a topic titled "Silhouettes Wiki," where he made some outstanding descriptions of different styles of suits.

In that post, he also said the following:
Also, if there is one thing I have heard more often about this post, about other posts, about my book, and about all discussions on the forum, it is this: "Too Few Illustrations! Words can't convey the necessary information." Well, I sympathize and agree. And I make the following suggestion. There are a lot of pics floating around out there, and on this site. Let's do our best to match pics with descriptions. We can post them here, and I will incorporate them into this post as warranted. Or not, if people don't like that idea
Manton's post replies sort of got off on a tangent into buttons, and I was wondering if someone could start a post which is free of side discussion, which only focuses on the styles Manton mentioned, as well as the posted pictures that we guests and members would have to add. I think it'd be really nice for everyone on this forum to have pictures to go along with descriptions--to open a post and see "description-picture, description-picture, ..."

Additionally, is there a way to clean things up or move discussions if things get off topic?
