> [@Shot\_From\_Guns](#): > > Please please please host pictures outside of Facebook. It takes two seconds to transload an image to something like [Imageshack](http://www.imageshack.us) (and yes, they do support actual transloading from another URL), it bypasses all of these FB security issues, and it means that those of us who post from workplaces where FB is blocked can actually see your photos. Thanks! I needed to post it for friends and family that couldn’t see it! So here, is my costume in a non-facebook format: [ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs](http://img260.imageshack.us/i/mvi1628.mp4/) Sorry it’s sideways.

> [@MeanOldLady](#): > > All right, correcting your link in my reply made my head hurt. Another good reason why people should be in bed (not posting on the internets!) at 2am. But more importantly, you are another person I [del]hate[/del] am extremely jealous of because you can make clothes! Now you might say, “Hey, you can learn how to, you know.” But then I’d say, “Meh, too much work.” Actually I am more likely to say, “You could learn how but it’s a lot of work and I wouldn’t recommend it.” 😃 No, seriously, I took a beginner’s sewing class about 5 years ago, mostly so I could make cute clothes for my kids and maybe curtains, and it’s turned into this major time-suck hobby for me. Oh, Husqvarna sewing machine, I just can’t quit you. **Shot From Guns** , it’s more like I coordinated my hair with the outfit. 😉 (Although not intentionally.) ---

[Wearing my late grandfather’s lederhosen.](http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=42775864&id=27400307) The shirt isn’t 100% tracht, and I’ve heard that today Germans prefer a pheasant brush to a feather, but the rest of it is authentic. Sorry, it’s a bit blurry. ---

I didn’t have time to make myself a costume this year, so I just wore butterfly wings to work. Per their request, I spent all my free time making these costumes for my kids. Anyone want to take a guess: [![](https://s525.photobucket.com/albums/cc334/pipperroo/The%20GIrls%202009/?action=view¤t=Halloween2009.jpg) ](https://s525.photobucket.com/albums/cc334/pipperroo/The%20GIrls%202009/?action=view¤t=Halloween2009.jpg) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-picture-thread-halloween-edition/515960.md?page=4)
