I may live to regret this :o but if you have any good links in your bookmarks that you will share (whats on etc) can you list them preferably with a quick one liner saying what the link is good for.
You can do it really easily by exporting your favourites into a file (even more easy if all your dance stuff is in one folder) and copying the exported text into a message.

How to do export favourites Explorer style
Just Look on your File menu for "Import / Export"
select "Export"
then follow the wizard..
When its finished save it as a text file.
Finally open the text file copy and paste the links into a new forum message. If the links have symbols around them like <> remove them as they stop the link from being visable in a forum message


Then we'll conquer the Universe :hug:

I am too lazy to do all that export business you so carefully documented (looks like you had a struggle in posts 2 and 3).

I haven't filtered out duplicates of yours.

http://www.247dancewear.co.uk/productsection.asp?ID=83 - Swarovski Rhinestones. I recommend them - very quick delivery and reasonably cheap, especially if you only need a few gross.
http://www.fotop.net/rainbowrainbow - actually, this site is fairly painful to navigate but is worth a look. Rainbowshiu has a huge catalogue of dance outfits. Most are pretty awful, but there are a few nice ones - Bryony got her costume for Blackpool 2004 there. And my understanding is she will make outfits to your design for a reasonable price. Workmanship is OK, but obviously not up to Chrisanne etc.

:rofl:

I'd pay a great amount for those dresses/skirts myself!!! They're amazing!

Come on Gus surely you must have looked in a catalogue/shop/internet and thought "Wow, it's expensive, but hey what the hell!!"?? I'm in that "what the hell mood" so I'm going to order something off it. :grin:
